Compulsory acquisition of rights in, under or over land

19.—(1) The undertaker may acquire compulsorily rights in, under or over so much of the Order land described in the book of reference, as is required for the construction, use and maintenance of the authorised development or is incidental to it or required to facilitate it.

(2) The acquisition of rights in, under or over the land in this article 19 shall include the compulsory acquisition of a right in, under or over land by creation of a new right.

(3) The undertaker may impose the restrictions, in, under or over the Order land described in the book of reference, as well as by acquiring the rights and the benefits of restrictions already in existence.

(4) This article is subject to article 27 (temporary use of land by the undertaker).

(5) Subject to section 8 of the 1965 Act (provisions as to divided land) as substituted by paragraph 5 of Schedule 4 (modification of compensation and compulsory purchase enactments for creation of new rights) where the undertaker acquires a right in, under or over land under this article or imposes a restriction under paragraph (3) the undertaker is not required to acquire a greater interest in that land.

(6) In any case where the acquisition of rights under this article or the imposition of a restriction under paragraph (3) is required for the purpose of diverting, replacing or protecting apparatus of a statutory undertaker, the undertaker may, with the consent of the Secretary of State, transfer the power to acquire such rights or impose such restrictions to the statutory undertaker in question.

(7) The exercise by a statutory undertaker of any power in accordance with a transfer under paragraph (6) is subject to the same restrictions, liabilities and obligations as would apply under this Order if that power were exercised by the undertaker.
