CHAPTER 1

LISTING BUILDINGS OF SPECIAL INTEREST

Proposals to list and de-list buildings: consultation and interim protection

Compensation for loss or damage caused by interim protection
80
1
This section applies where interim protection ends in relation to a building because the Welsh Ministers serve notice under section 79(5)(b) that they have decided not to list the building.
2
Any person who had an interest in the building when the interim protection took effect is entitled, on making a claim to the Welsh Ministers, to be paid compensation by them for any loss or damage suffered by the person that is directly attributable to the interim protection.
3
The loss or damage for which compensation is payable includes any amount payable by the claimant in respect of a breach of contract caused by the need to stop or cancel works to the building because of the interim protection.
4
A claim for compensation under this section must be made in writing within 6 months beginning when the interim protection ends.
5
Where the building was previously subject to temporary listing under section 83 which ended because the interim protection took effect—
a
the reference in subsection (2) to the time when the interim protection took effect is to be treated as a reference to the time when the temporary listing took effect;
b
the reference in that subsection to loss or damage directly attributable to the interim protection includes loss or damage directly attributable to the temporary listing;
c
the reference in subsection (3) to the need to stop or cancel works because of the interim protection includes the need to do so because of the temporary listing.
