(b)so much of that compensation as is for any loss or damage which is nullified by the further decision,

together with interest on that amount from the date on which the operations made lawful by the Minister’s further decision were begun until payment at the rate for the time being in force under section 32 of the M1Land Compensation Act 1961 or, as the case may be, section 40 of the M2Land Compensation (Scotland) Act 1963.
