Compensation

Disregard of certain interests and improvements

43.—(1) In assessing the compensation (if any) payable to any person on the acquisition from him of any land under this Order, the tribunal shall not take into account—

(a)any interest in land, or

(b)any enhancement of the value of any interest in land by reason of any building erected, works executed or improvement or alteration made on relevant land,

if the tribunal is satisfied that the creation of the interest, the erection of the building, the execution of the works or the making of the improvement or alteration was not reasonably necessary and was undertaken with a view to obtaining compensation or increased compensation.

(2) In paragraph (1) above “relevant land” means the land acquired from the person concerned or any other land with which he is, or was at the time when the building was erected, the works executed or the improvement or alteration made, directly or indirectly concerned.

Supplementary

Acquisition of part of certain properties

44.—(1) This article shall apply instead of section 8(1) of the 1965 Act (as applied by article 36 above) in any case where—

(a)a notice to treat is served on a person (“the owner”) under the 1965 Act (as so applied) in respect of land forming only part of a house, building or factory or of land consisting of a house with a park or garden (“the land subject to the notice to treat”); and

(b)a copy of this article is served on the owner with the notice to treat.

(2) In such a case, the owner may, within the period of 21 days beginning with the day on which the notice was served, serve on the undertaker a counter-notice objecting to the sale of the land subject to the notice to treat and stating that he is willing and able to sell the whole (“the land subject to the counter-notice”).

(3) If no such counter-notice is served within that period, the owner shall be required to sell the land subject to the notice to treat.

(4) If such a counter-notice is served within that period, the question whether the owner shall be required to sell only the land subject to the notice to treat shall, unless the undertaker agrees to take the land subject to the counter-notice, be referred to the tribunal.

(5) If on such a reference the tribunal determine that the land subject to the notice to treat can be taken—

(a)without material detriment to the remainder of the land subject to the counter-notice, or

(b)in the case of part of land consisting of a house with a park or garden, without material detriment to the remainder of the land subject to the counter-notice and without seriously affecting the amenity and convenience of the house,

the owner shall be required to sell the land subject to the notice to treat.

(6) If on such a reference the tribunal determine that only part of the land subject to the notice to treat can be taken—

(a)without material detriment to the remainder of the land subject to the counter-notice, or

(b)in the case of part of land consisting of a house with a park or garden, without material detriment to the remainder of the land subject to the counter-notice and without seriously affecting the amenity and convenience of the house,

the notice to treat shall be deemed to be a notice to treat for that part.

(7) If on such a reference the tribunal determine that—

(a)the land subject to the notice to treat cannot be taken without material detriment to the remainder of the land subject to the counter-notice, but

(b)the material detriment is confined to a part of the land subject to the counter-notice,

the notice to treat shall be deemed to be a notice to treat for the land to which the material detriment is confined in addition to the land already subject to the notice, whether or not the additional land is land which the undertaker is authorised to acquire compulsorily under this Order.

(8) If the undertaker agrees to take the land subject to the counter-notice, or if the tribunal determine that—

(a)none of the land subject to the notice to treat can be taken without material detriment to the remainder of the land subject to the counter-notice or, as the case may be, without material detriment to the remainder of the land subject to the counter-notice and without seriously affecting the amenity and convenience of the house, and

(b)that the material detriment is not confined to a part of the land subject to the counter-notice,

the notice to treat shall be deemed to be a notice to treat for the land subject to the counter-notice whether or not the whole of that land is land which the undertaker is authorised to acquire compulsorily under this Order.

(9) In any case where by virtue of a determination by the tribunal under this article a notice to treat is deemed to be a notice to treat for less land or more land than that specified in the notice, the undertaker may, within the period of 6 weeks beginning with the day on which the determination is made, withdraw the notice to treat; and if it does so shall pay to the owner compensation for any loss or expense occasioned to him by the giving and withdrawal of the notice, to be determined in case of dispute by the tribunal.

(10) Where the owner is required under this article to sell only part of a house, building or factory or of land consisting of a house with a park or garden, the undertaker shall pay him compensation for any loss sustained by him due to the severance of that part in addition to the value of the interest acquired.

Extinction or suspension of private rights of way

45.—(1) All private rights of way over land subject to compulsory acquisition under this Order shall be extinguished—

(a)as from the acquisition of the land by the undertaker, whether compulsorily or by agreement, or

(b)on the entry on the land by the undertaker under section 11(1) of the 1965 Act,

whichever is sooner.

(2) All private rights of way over land owned by the undertaker which, being within the limits of land which may be acquired shown on the works plans, is required for the purposes of this Order shall be extinguished on the appropriation of the land for any of those purposes by the undertaker.

(3) All private rights of way over land of which the undertaker takes temporary possession under this Order shall be suspended and unenforceable for as long as the undertaker remains in lawful possession of the land.

(4) Any person who suffers loss by the extinguishment or suspension of any private right of way under this article shall be entitled to compensation to be determined, in case of dispute, under Part I of the Land Compensation Act 1961(33).

(5) This article does not apply in relation to any right of way to which section 271 or 272 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990(34) (extinguishment of rights of statutory undertakers etc.) or paragraph 2 of Schedule 11 to this Order applies.

10.—(1) The undertaker shall, before commencing any specified work or operation, supply to the Queen’s Harbour Master proper and sufficient plans of the works or operation for his reasonable approval and shall not commence the same until such plans have been approved in writing by the Queen’s Harbour Master, or, in the event of dispute, settled pursuant to paragraph 15.

(2) In considering plans for approval under this paragraph, the Queen’s Harbour Master shall have regard not only to the interests of navigation but also to the desirability of facilitating the construction of the specified works and operations notwithstanding that they interfere with navigation, taking into account for this purpose that those works and operations will enable the provision of a public project for which statutory authority has been given.

(3) The approval of the Queen’s Harbour Master under this paragraph shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed but may be given subject to reasonable conditions including conditions requiring the undertaker to vacate the tunnel area in whole or in part upon a direction being given to that effect by the Queen’s Harbour Master in an emergency or otherwise for naval operational requirements where it is not reasonably practical for those requirements otherwise to be met.

(4) If, within 56 days after plans have been supplied to the Queen’s Harbour Master under this paragraph, the Queen’s Harbour Master has not intimated his approval or his disapproval thereof and the grounds of his disapproval, he shall be deemed to have disapproved them.

11.  Without prejudice to any conditions attached to an approval by the Queen’s Harbour Master under paragraph 10 above but subject to the provisions of article 22 any specified work or operation shall be so constructed or carried out as to ensure that traffic in the harbour is not interfered with more than is reasonably necessary and that at all times an unobstructed main navigation channel for the safe passage of vessels is maintained and kept dredged by the undertaker to such depth as the Queen’s Harbour Master may reasonably require and to a width of not less than 120 metres.

12.—(1) Notwithstanding anything in this Order but subject to paragraph (2), the whole of the harbour shall remain subject to the powers of the Queen’s Harbour Master.

(2) Anything done pursuant to an approval given under paragraph 10 shall be treated as complying with the provisions of the Dockyard Port of Portsmouth Order 1978(44) and in so far as it would otherwise require a licence or consent from the Queen’s Harbour Master under that Order shall be deemed to have been duly licensed or consented to pursuant to that Order.

13.  The Undertaker shall—

(a)at all times afford reasonable facilities to the Queen’s Harbour Master for access to the specified works and operations during their construction; and

(b)supply the Queen’s Harbour Master with all such information as he may reasonably require with regard to the specified works or the method of their execution.

14.—(1) The Queen’s Harbour Master may recover from the undertaker any expenses (including a proper proportion of the overhead charges of the Queen’s Harbour Master) which he may incur—

(a)arising from the approval of plans and the inspection of the construction or carrying out of any specified work or operations;

(b)by reason of any act or omission of the undertaker or of any person in their employ, or of their contractors or workmen whilst engaged upon any specified work or operation;

(c)in dredging away any accumulation or silt consequent upon the execution or maintenance of any specified work or operation;

and the undertaker shall indemnify the Queen’s Harbour Master from and against all claims and demands arising out of such construction or carrying out, act or omission and the fact that any act or thing may have been done by the Queen’s Harbour Master on behalf of the undertaker or in accordance with plans approved by the Queen’s Harbour Master or in accordance with any requirement of the Queen’s Harbour Master or under his supervision shall not (if it was done without negligence on the part of the Queen’s Harbour Master or of any person in his employ or of his contractors or agents) excuse the undertaker from any liability under the provisions of this paragraph.

(2) The Queen’s Harbour Master shall give to the undertaker reasonable notice for any claim or demand as aforesaid and no settlement or compromise thereof shall be made without the prior consent of the undertaker.

15.  Any difference arising between the undertaker and the Queen’s Harbour Master under this paragraph (other than a difference as to its meaning or construction) shall be referred to and settled by the Secretary of State.

16.  The provisions of paragraphs 10 to 15 shall have effect unless otherwise agreed in writing between the undertaker and the Queen’s Harbour Master.

Saving

17.  Nothing in this Schedule shall prejudice or derogate from the powers, rights and privileges of Trinity House.

Article 38

SCHEDULE 8MODIFICATION OF COMPENSATION AND COMPULSORY PURCHASE ENACTMENTS FOR CREATION OF NEW RIGHTS

Compensation enactments

1.  The enactments for the time being in force with respect to compensation for the compulsory purchase of land shall apply, with the necessary modifications as respects compensation, in the case of a compulsory acquisition under this Order of a right by the creation of a new right as they apply as respects compensation on the compulsory purchase of land and interests in land.

2.—(1) Without prejudice to the generality of paragraph 1 above, the Land Compensation Act 1973(45) shall have effect subject to the modifications set out in sub-paragraphs (2) and (3) below.

(2) In section 44(1) (compensation for injurious affection), as it applies to compensation for injurious affection under section 7 of the 1965 Act as substituted by paragraph 4 below—

(a)for the words “land is acquired or taken” there shall be substituted the words “a right over land is purchased”; and

(b)for the words “acquired or taken from him” there shall be substituted the words “over which the right is exercisable”.

(3) In section 58(1) (determination of material detriment where part of house etc. proposed for compulsory acquisition), as it applies to determinations under section 8 of the 1965 Act as substituted by paragraph 5 below—

(a)for the word “part” in paragraphs (a) and (b) there shall be substituted the words “a right over land consisting”;

(b)for the word “severance” there shall be substituted the words “right over the whole of the house, building or manufactory or of the house and the park or garden”;

(c)for the words “part proposed” there shall be substituted the words “right proposed”; and

(d)for the words “part is” there shall be substituted the words “right is”.

Adaptation of the 1965 Act

3.—(1) The 1965 Act shall have effect with the modifications necessary to make it apply to the compulsory acquisition under this Order of a right by the creation of a new right as it applies to the compulsory acquisition under this Order of land, so that, in appropriate contexts, references in that Act to land are read (according to the requirements of the particular context) as referring to, or as including references to—

(a)the right acquired or to be acquired; or

(b)the land over which the right is or is to be exercisable.

(2) Without prejudice to the generality of sub-paragraph (1) above, Part I of the 1965 Act shall apply in relation to the compulsory acquisition under this Order of a right by the creation of a new right with the modifications specified in the following provisions of this Schedule.

4.  For section 7 of the 1965 Act (measure of compensation) there shall be substituted the following section—

In assessing the compensation to be paid by the acquiring authority under this Act, regard shall be had not only to the extent (if any) to which the value of the land over which the right is to be acquired is depreciated by the acquisition of the right but also to the damage (if any) to be sustained by the owner of the land by reason of its severance from other land of his, or injuriously affecting that other land by the exercise of the powers conferred by this or the special Act..

5.  For section 8 of the 1965 Act (provisions as to divided land) there shall be substituted the following:—

(1) Where in consequence of the service on a person under section 5 of this Act of a notice to treat in respect of a right over land consisting of a house, building or manufactory or of a park or garden belonging to a house (“the relevant land”)—

(a)a question of disputed compensation in respect of the purchase of the right would apart from this section fall to be determined by the Lands Tribunal (“the tribunal”); and

(b)before the tribunal has determined that question the person satisfies the tribunal that he has an interest which he is able and willing to sell in the whole of the relevant land and—

(i)where that land consists of a house, building or manufactory, that the right cannot be purchased without material detriment to that land, or

(ii)where that land consists of such a park or garden, that the right cannot be purchased without seriously affecting the amenity or convenience of the house to which that land belongs,

the South Hampshire Rapid Transit Order 2001 (“the Order”) shall, in relation to that person cease to authorise the purchase of the right and be deemed to authorise the purchase of that person’s interest in the whole of the relevant land including, where the land consists of such a park or garden, the house to which it belongs, and the notice shall be deemed to have been served in respect of that interest on such date as the tribunal directs.

(2) Any question as to the extent of the land in which the Order is deemed to authorise the purchase of an interest by virtue of subsection (1) of this section shall be determined by the tribunal.

(3) Where in consequence of a determination of the tribunal that it is satisfied as mentioned in subsection (1) of this section the Order is deemed by virtue of that subsection to authorise the purchase of an interest in land, the acquiring authority may, at any time within the period of 6 weeks beginning with the date of the determination, withdraw the notice to treat in consequence of which the determination was made; but nothing in this subsection prejudices any other power of the authority to withdraw the notice..

6.  The following provisions of the 1965 Act (which state the effect of a deed poll executed in various circumstances where there is no conveyance by persons with interests in the land), that is to say—

(a)section 9(4) (failure by owners to convey),

(b)paragraph 10(3) of Schedule 1 (owners under incapacity),

(c)paragraph 2(3) of Schedule 2 (absent and untraced owners), and

(d)paragraphs 2(3) and 7(2) of Schedule 4 (common land),

shall be so modified as to secure that, as against persons with interests in the land which are expressed to be overridden by the deed, the right which is to be compulsorily acquired is vested absolutely in the acquiring authority.

7.  Section 11 of the 1965 Act (powers of entry) shall be so modified as to secure that, as from the date on which the acquiring authority have served notice to treat in respect of any right, they have power, exercisable in the like circumstances and subject to the like conditions, to enter for the purpose of exercising that right (which shall be deemed for this purpose to have been created on the date of service of the notice); and sections 12 (penalty for unauthorised entry) and 13 (entry on warrant in the event of obstruction) of the 1965 Act shall be modified correspondingly.

8.  Section 20 of the 1965 Act (protection for interests of tenants at will, etc.) shall apply with the modifications necessary to secure that persons with such interests in land as are mentioned in that section are compensated in a manner corresponding to that in which they would be compensated on a compulsory acquisition under this Order of that land, but taking into account only the extent (if any) of such interference with such an interest as is actually caused, or likely to be caused, by the exercise of the right in question.

9.  Section 22 of the 1965 Act (protection of acquiring authority’s possession where by inadvertence an estate, right or interest has not been got in) shall be so modified as to enable the acquiring authority, in circumstances corresponding to those referred to in that section, to continue to be entitled to exercise the right acquired, subject to compliance with that section as respects compensation.

(3) The specified works shall not be constructed except in accordance with such plans as have been approved in writing by the engineer or settled by arbitration and, in the case of any works subject to railway operational procedures, in compliance with the requirements of those procedures.

(4) The approval of the engineer under this paragraph shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and if, within a period of 56 days beginning with the day on which such plans have been supplied to Railtrack, the engineer has not intimated his disapproval of the plans and the grounds of his disapproval he shall be deemed to have approved the plans.

(5) If within a period of 56 days beginning with the day on which such plans have been supplied to Railtrack, it gives notice to the undertaker that it desires itself to construct any part of the specified works, being works which do not form part of the tunnel and which in the opinion of the engineer will or may affect the stability of railway property or the safe operation of traffic on any railway of Railtrack, then, if the undertaker desires such part of the specified works to be constructed, Railtrack shall construct that part, with all reasonable despatch, on behalf of and to the reasonable satisfaction of the undertaker in accordance with the plans approved or deemed to be approved or settled and under the supervision (where appropriate and if given) of the undertaker.

(6) In the event of Railtrack not constructing or completing any part of the specified works pursuant to sub-paragraph (5) above with reasonable despatch and to the reasonable satisfaction of the undertaker in accordance with such programme as may be agreed with the undertaker or settled by arbitration, Railtrack shall pay compensation to the undertaker for any loss which it may thereby reasonably sustain.

9.—(1) Upon signifying his approval or disapproval of the plans the engineer may specify any protective works or other alterations or additions to railway property (whether temporary or permanent) which in his reasonable opinion should be carried out in consequence of the specified works, either before the commencement, during the construction or within 12 months of completion of the specified works, in order to ensure the safety or stability of railway property, the continued safe and efficient operation of railway property or the services of operators using the same (including any relocation of works, apparatus and equipment necessitated by the specified works).

(2) Subject to compliance where applicable with railway operational procedures all such works specified by the engineer under sub-paragraph (1) above as may be agreed by the undertaker or, failing agreement, settled by arbitration, shall be constructed by Railtrack or, if Railtrack so desires, by the undertaker with all reasonable despatch during the period agreed or settled for such works.

(3) In the case of any such works required to be carried out before the commencement of the specified works, the undertaker shall not commence the construction of the specified works until the engineer has notified the undertaker that those works have been completed to his reasonable satisfaction.

(4) In the event of Railtrack not constructing or completing any such works with reasonable despatch as required by sub-paragraph (2) above, in accordance with such programme as may have been agreed with the undertaker or settled by arbitration, Railtrack shall pay compensation to the undertaker for any loss which the undertaker may thereby reasonably sustain.

(5) If any other alterations, either permanent or temporary, to railway property are reasonably necessary during the construction of the specified works or during a period of 12 months after the completion thereof in consequence of the construction of the specified works, the engineer may give notice to the undertaker specifying the alterations or additions to be carried out and sub-paragraph (2) above shall apply to works specified under this sub-paragraph as it applies to works specified under sub-paragraph (1) above.

10.  The undertaker shall give to the engineer not less than 28 days' notice of its intention to commence the construction of any of the specified works and also, except in emergency (when it shall give such notice as may be reasonably practicable), of its intention to carry out any works for the alteration or reconstruction of the specified works in so far as such works of alteration or reconstruction affect or interfere with railway property.

(a)with all reasonable despatch in accordance with the plans approved or deemed to have been approved or settled in accordance with the requirements of this Schedule;

(b)under the supervision (where appropriate and if given) and to the reasonable satisfaction of the engineer;

(c)in such manner as to cause as little damage to railway property as reasonably practicable; and

(d)so far as is reasonably practicable and consistent with the efficient and economic construction and operation of the specified works, so as not to interfere with or obstruct the free, uninterrupted and safe use of any railway or the traffic thereon the operation of any station and the use by passengers of railway property;

and, if any damage to railway property is caused or takes place during and in consequence of the construction of the specified works, the undertaker shall, (so far as consistent with the plans as approved, deemed to have been approved or settled) make good such damage.

12.  The undertaker shall—
