2 In paragraph (1) “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

34 Acquisition of part of certain properties
1 This article shall apply instead of section 8(1) of the 1965 Act (as applied by article 26) 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 Executive 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 Executive 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 Executive is authorised to acquire compulsorily under this Order.
8 If the Executive 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 Executive 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 Executive 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 it shall pay 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 Executive 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.

35 Extinction or suspension of rights of way
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 Executive, whether compulsorily or by agreement; or
(b) on the entry on the land by the Executive under section 11(1) or (2) of the 1965 Act;
whichever is sooner.
2 All private rights of way over land of which the Executive takes temporary possession under this Order shall be suspended and unenforceable for as long as the Executive remains in lawful possession of the land.
3 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 1961 Act.
4 This article does not apply in relation to any right of way to which section 271 or 272 of the 1990 Act (extinguishment of rights of statutory undertakers etc.) applies.
5 Paragraphs (1) and (2) shall have effect subject to any agreement made (whether before or after this Order comes into force) between the Executive and the person entitled to the private right of way.
6 Paragraph (1) shall have effect subject to any notice given by the Executive that that paragraph shall not apply to any right of way specified in the notice where the notice is given before whichever is the soonest of the events specified in sub-paragraphs (a) or (b) of that paragraph.
7 Paragraph (2) shall have effect subject to any notice given by the Executive at any time before or after possession is taken that that paragraph shall not apply to any right of way specified in the notice or shall only apply to the right of way to the extent specified in the notice.
8 This article does not apply to any of the land specified in column (1) of Part 2 of Schedule 2 to this Order.

(a) no notice to treat shall be served under Part I of the 1965 Act, as applied to the acquisition of land by article 26; and
(b) no declaration shall be executed under section 4 of the Compulsory Purchase (Vesting Declarations) Act 1981, as applied by article 27.
1981 c. 66.
2 The powers conferred by article 30 shall cease at the end of the period referred to in paragraph (1), save that nothing in this paragraph shall prevent the Executive remaining in possession of land after the end of that period if the land was entered and possession of it was taken before the end of that period.

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

“8 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 Land 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 Midland Metro (Birmingham City Centre Extension, etc.) Order 2005 (“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 of land, the acquiring authority may, at any time within the period of six 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.”

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

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.

(10) For the purpose of paragraph 9(a) any modifications to Network Rail’s apparatus under this paragraph shall be deemed to be protective works referred to in that paragraph.
(11) In relation to any dispute arising under this paragraph the reference in article 53 to the Institution of Civil Engineers shall be read as a reference to the Institution of Electrical Engineers.
11 (1) If at any time after the completion of a specified work, not being a work vested in Network Rail, Network Rail gives notice to the undertaker informing it that the state of maintenance of the specified work appears to be such as adversely affects the operation of railway property, the undertaker shall, on receipt of such notice, take such steps as may be reasonably necessary to put that specified work in such state of maintenance as not adversely to affect railway property.

Fencing
5 Where so required by the engineer the undertaker shall to the reasonable satisfaction of the engineer fence off a specified work or a protective work or take such other steps as the engineer may require to be taken for the purpose of separating a specified work or a protective work from a waterway, whether on a temporary or permanent basis or both.

Survey of waterway
6 (1) Before the commencement of the initial construction of any part of the specified works and again following practical completion of the specified works the undertaker shall bear the reasonable cost of the carrying out by a qualified engineer (“the engineer”), to be approved by BW and the undertaker, of a survey including a dip-survey to measure the depth of the waterway (“the survey”) of so much of the waterway and of any land and existing works of the undertaker which may provide support for the waterway as will or may be affected by the specified works.
(2) For the purposes of the survey the undertaker shall—
(i) on being given reasonable notice (save in case of emergency, when immediate access shall be afforded) afford reasonable facilities to the engineer for access to the site of the specified works and to any land and existing works of the undertaker which may provide support for the waterway as will or may be affected by the specified works; and

(2) The approval of the engineer under sub-paragraph (1) shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and if within 56 days after such plans (including any other particulars reasonably required under sub-paragraph (1)) have been supplied to BW, the engineer has not intimated his disapproval of those plans and the grounds of his disapproval he shall be deemed to have approved the plans as submitted.
(3) When signifying his approval of the plans the engineer may specify—
(a) any protective work (whether temporary or permanent) which in his reasonable opinion should be carried out before the commencement of a specified work to prevent detriment; and
(b) such other requirements as may be reasonably necessary to prevent detriment;
and such protective works shall be constructed by the undertaker or by BW at the undertaker’s request with all reasonable dispatch and the undertaker shall not commence the construction of a specified work until the engineer has notified the undertaker that the protective works have been completed to his reasonable satisfaction.

(a) the design and appearance of the specified works, including the materials to be used for their construction; and
(b) the environmental effects of the specified works;
and shall have regard to such views as may be expressed by BW to the extent that these accord with the requirements of the local planning authority in response to such consultation pursuant in particular to the requirements imposed on BW by section 22 (General environmental and recreational duties) of the British Waterways Act 1995 and to the interest of BW in preserving and enhancing the environment of its waterways.
1995 c. i.

Notice of works
9 The undertaker shall give to the engineer 56 days' notice of its intention to commence the construction of any of the specified or protective works, or, in the case of repair carried out in an emergency, such notice as may be reasonably practicable so that, in particular, BW may where appropriate arrange for the publication of notices bringing those works to the attention of users of BW’s network.

Lighting

(b) under the supervision (if given) and to the reasonable satisfaction of the engineer;
(c) in such manner as to cause as little detriment as is reasonably practicable;
(d) in such manner as to cause as little inconvenience as is reasonably practicable to BW, its officers and agents and all other persons lawfully using the waterways, except to the extent that temporary obstruction has otherwise been agreed by BW.
(2) Nothing in this Order shall authorise the undertaker to make or maintain any permanent works in or over a waterway so as to impede or prevent (whether by reducing the width of a waterway or otherwise) the passage of any vessel which is of a kind (as to its dimensions) for which BW is required by section 105(1)(b) and (2) of the Transport Act 1968 to maintain the waterway.

(2) If the cost of maintaining, working or renewing the waterway is reduced in consequence of any such alterations or additions a capitalised sum representing such saving shall be set off against any sum payable by the undertaker to BW under this paragraph.

Maintenance of works
15 If at any time after the completion of a specified work or a protective work, not being a work vested in BW, BW gives notice to the undertaker informing it that the state of maintenance of the work appears to be such that the work is causing or likely to cause detriment, the undertaker shall, on receipt of such notice, take such steps as may be reasonably necessary to put the work in such state of maintenance as not to cause such detriment.
