(a)in the case of land specified in paragraph 1(a)(i) after the end of the period of one year beginning with the date of completion of the part of the authorised project specified in relation to that land in column (4) of Schedule 9 (land of which temporary possession may be taken); or

(b)in the case of land specified in paragraph 1(a)(ii) after the end of the period of one year beginning with the date of completion of the part of the authorised project for which temporary possession of the land was taken,
