Section 71: Assignation of network wayleave rights
169.Section 71 provides that a network wayleave right may be assigned by one licence holder to another, but a network wayleave right conferred by a necessary wayleave may only be assigned with the consent of the Scottish Ministers (subsections (1) and (2)).
170.A wayleave document is void to the extent it prevents or limits the assignation of the network wayleave right to another licence holder or makes the assignation of the network wayleave right to another licence holder subject to a condition (including a condition requiring the payment of money) (subsection (3)).
