“operational land”, in relation to a designated person, means land which is used for the purposes of carrying on that person’s undertaking, being land which, in respect of its nature and situation, is comparable rather with land which is used for the purposes of carrying on of statutory undertakings (within the meaning of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990) than with land in general;
and any reference to hereditaments used for any purpose includes a reference to hereditaments which are unused but in relation to which it appears that when next in use they will be used for such a purpose.
