(a)the character of the street and the traffic which was reasonably to be expected to use it;

(b)the standard of maintenance appropriate for a street of that character and used by such traffic;

(c)the state of repair in which a reasonable person would have expected to find the street;

(d)whether the undertaker knew, or could reasonably have been expected to know, that the condition of the part of the street to which the action relates was likely to cause danger to users of the street; and

(e)where the undertaker could not reasonably have been expected to repair that part of the street before the cause of action arose, what warning notices of its condition had been displayed.

but for the purposes of such a defence it is not relevant to prove that the undertaker had arranged for a competent person to carry out or supervise the maintenance of the part of the street to which the action relates unless it is also proved that the undertaker had given the competent person proper instructions with regard to the maintenance of the street and that the competent person had carried out those instructions.

(6) In determining who is the street authority in relation to a street for the purposes of Part III of the 1991 Act, any obligation of the undertaker to maintain the street under paragraph (1) or (2) must be disregarded.

if the tribunal is satisfied that the creation of the interest, the erection of the building, the carrying out of the works or the making of the improvement or alteration as part of the authorised development was not reasonably necessary and was undertaken with a view to obtaining compensation or increased compensation.

Set-off for enhancement in value of retained land

PART 6MISCELLANEOUS AND GENERAL

Application of landlord and tenant law

42.—(1) This article applies to—

(a)any agreement for leasing to any person the whole or any part of the authorised development or the right to operate the same; and

(b)any agreement entered into by the undertaker with any person for the construction, maintenance, use or operation of the authorised development, or any part of it, so far as any such agreement relates to the terms on which any land which is the subject of a lease granted by or under that agreement is to be provided for that person’s use.

(2) No enactment or rule of law regulating the rights and obligations of landlords and tenants prejudices the operation of any agreement to which this article applies.

(3) Accordingly, no such enactment or rule of law applies in relation to the rights and obligations of the parties to any lease granted by or under any such agreement so as to—

(a)exclude or in any respect modify any of the rights and obligations of those parties under the terms of the lease, whether with respect to the termination of the tenancy or any other matter;

(a)has effect as if duly made by—

(i)the traffic authority in whose area the road is situated as a traffic regulation order under the 1984 Act; or

(ii)the local authority in whose area the road is situated as an order under section 32 (power of local authorities to provide parking places) of the 1984 Act, and the instrument by which it is effected may specify savings and exemptions (in addition to those mentioned in Schedule 14 (traffic regulation)) to which the prohibition, restriction or other provision is subject; and

(b)is deemed to be a traffic order for the purposes of Schedule 7 (road traffic contraventions subject to civil enforcement) to the Traffic Management Act 2004(77).

(5) Any prohibition, restriction or other provision made under this article may be suspended, varied or revoked by the undertaker from time to time by subsequent exercise of the powers conferred by paragraphs (1) and (2) at any time prior to the part of the authorised development to which it relates being brought into operational use.

(6) Before complying with the provisions of paragraph (3) the undertaker must consult the chief officer of police and the traffic authority in whose area the road is situated.

(7) Expressions used in this article and in the 1984 Act have the same meaning in this article as in that Act.

(8) If the traffic authority fails to notify the undertaker of its decision within 28 days of receiving an application for consent under paragraphs (1) and (2) the traffic authority is deemed to have granted consent.

(9) Any application for consent under paragraphs (1) and (2) must include a statement that the provisions of paragraph (8) apply to that application.

(b)a right over or a restrictive covenant affecting land consisting of a park or garden belonging to a house can be taken or imposed without seriously affecting the amenity or convenience of the house,

the Upper Tribunal must take into account not only the effect of the acquisition of the right or imposition of the restrictive covenant but also the use to be made of the right or restrictive covenant proposed to be acquired or imposed, and, in a case where the right or restrictive covenant is proposed to be acquired or imposed for works or other purposes extending to other land, the effect of the whole of the works and the use to be made of the other land.

Application of the 1965 Act

3.—(1) The 1965 Act has effect with the modifications necessary to make it apply to the compulsory acquisition under this Order of a right by the creation of a new right, or to the imposition under this Order of a restrictive covenant, as it applies to the compulsory acquisition under this Order of land, so that, in appropriate contexts, references in that Act to land are read (according to the requirements of the particular context) as referring to, or as including references to—

(a)the right acquired or to be acquired, or the restriction imposed or to be imposed; or

(b)the land over which the right is or is to be exercisable, or the restriction is or is to be enforceable.

(2) Without limitation on the scope of sub-paragraph (1), Part 1 of the 1965 Act applies in relation to the compulsory acquisition under this Order of a right by the creation of a new right or, in relation to the imposition of a restriction, with the modifications specified in the following provisions of this Schedule.

4.  For section 7 of the 1965 Act (measure of compensation) substitute—

7.  In assessing the compensation to be paid by the acquiring authority under this Act, regard must be had not only to the extent (if any) to which the value of the land over which the right is to be acquired or the restrictive covenant is to be imposed is depreciated by the acquisition of the right or the imposition of the covenant but also to the damage (if any) to be sustained by the owner of the land by reason of its severance from other land of the owner, or injuriously affecting that other land by the exercise of the powers conferred by this or the special Act.

5.  For section 8 of the 1965 Act (provisions as to divided land) substitute—

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 or the imposition of the restrictive covenant would apart from this section fall to be determined by the tribunal; and

(b)before the tribunal has determined that question the tribunal is satisfied that the person has an interest in the whole of the relevant land and is able and willing to sell that land and—

(i)where that land consists of a house, building or manufactory, that the right cannot be purchased or the restrictive covenant imposed without material detriment to that land; or

(ii)where that land consists of such a park or garden, that the right cannot be purchased or the restrictive covenant imposed without seriously affecting the amenity or convenience of the house to which that land belongs,

the National Grid (Yorkshire Green Energy Enablement Project ) Development Consent Order 2024 (“the Order”) ceases, in relation to that person, to authorise the purchase of the right or imposition of a restriction and is 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 is 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 must 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 in land, the acquiring authority may, at any time within the period of 6 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.

6.  The following provisions of the 1965 Act (which state the effect of a deed poll executed in various circumstances where there is no conveyance by persons with interests in the land), that is to say—

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

(b)paragraph 10(3) of Schedule 1 (owners under incapacity);

(c)paragraph 2(3) of Schedule 2 (absent and untraced owners); and

(d)paragraphs 2(3) and 7(2) of Schedule 4 (common land),

are modified to secure that, as against persons with interests in the land which are expressed to be overridden by the deed, the right which is to be compulsorily acquired or the restrictive covenant which is to be imposed is vested absolutely in the acquiring authority.

7.  Section 11(84) of the 1965 Act (powers of entry) is modified to secure that, as from the date on which the acquiring authority has served notice to treat in respect of any right or restriction, it has power, exercisable in equivalent circumstances and subject to equivalent conditions, to enter for the purpose of exercising that right or enforcing that restrictive covenant (which is deemed for this purpose to have been created on the date of service of the notice); and sections 12(85) (penalty for unauthorised entry) and 13(86) (entry on warrant in the event of obstruction) of the 1965 Act are modified correspondingly.

8.  Section 20(87) of the 1965 Act (protection for interests of tenants at will, etc.) applies 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 or the enforcement of the restrictive covenant 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) is 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 or to enforce the restriction imposed, subject to compliance with that section as respects compensation.

SCHEDULE 15PROTECTIVE PROVISIONS

PART 1PROTECTION FOR ELECTRICITY, GAS, WATER AND SEWERAGE UNDERTAKERS

1.  For the protection of the statutory undertakers referred to in this Part of this Schedule the following provisions, unless otherwise agreed in writing between the undertaker and the statutory undertaker concerned, have effect.

2.  In this Part of this Schedule—

alternative apparatus” means alternative apparatus adequate to enable the relevant statutory undertaker to fulfil its statutory functions in a manner not less efficient than previously;

apparatus” means—

(a)

in the case of an electricity undertaker, electric lines or electrical plant (as defined in the 1989 Act(88)), belonging to or maintained by that electricity undertaker for the purposes of electricity supply;

(b)

in the case of a gas undertaker, any mains, pipes or other apparatus belonging to or maintained by that gas undertaker for the purposes of gas supply;

(c)

in the case of a water undertaker, mains, pipes or other water apparatus belonging to or maintained by that water undertaker for the purposes of water supply; and

(d)

in the case of a sewerage undertaker—

(i)

any drain or works vested in that undertaker under the Water Industry Act 1991(89); and

(ii)

any sewer which is so vested or is the subject of a notice of intention to adopt given under section 102(4) (adoption of sewers and disposal works) of that Act or an agreement to adopt made under section 104 (agreements to adopt sewer, drain or sewage disposal works, at future date) of that Act, and includes a sludge main, disposal main (within the meaning of section 219 (general interpretation) of that Act) or sewer outfall and any manholes, ventilating shafts, pumps or other accessories forming part of any such sewer, drain or works, and in each case includes any structure in which apparatus is or is to be lodged or which gives or will give access to apparatus;

functions” includes powers and duties;

“in” in a context referring to apparatus or alternative apparatus in land includes a reference to apparatus or alternative apparatus under, over or upon land;

relevant statutory undertaker” means, in relation to any apparatus, the statutory undertaker that owns the apparatus or is responsible for its maintenance; and

statutory undertaker” means—

(a)

any licence holder within the meaning of Part 1 of the 1989 Act;

(b)

a gas transporter within the meaning of Part 1 of the Gas Act 1986(90);

(c)

a water undertaker within the meaning of the Water Industry Act 1991; and

(d)

a sewerage undertaker within the meaning of Part 1 of the Water Industry Act 1991, for the area of the authorised development.

3.  This Part of this Schedule does not apply to apparatus in respect of which the relations between the undertaker and the statutory undertaker are regulated by the provisions of Part 3 of the 1991 Act.

4.—(1) If, in the exercise of the powers conferred by this Order, the undertaker acquires any interest in any land in which any apparatus is placed, that apparatus must not be removed under this Part of this Schedule and any right of a statutory undertaker to maintain that apparatus in that land must not be extinguished until alternative apparatus has been constructed and is in operation to the reasonable satisfaction of the relevant statutory undertaker.

(2) If, for the purpose of executing any works in, on or under any land purchased, held, appropriated or used under this Order, the undertaker requires the removal of any apparatus placed in that land, it must give to the relevant statutory undertaker written notice of that requirement, together with a plan and section of the work proposed.

(3) If alternative apparatus or any part of such apparatus is to be constructed as a consequence of the removal of apparatus placed on the land referred to in sub-paragraph (2), the relevant statutory undertaker, must on receipt of a written notice to that effect from the undertaker, as soon as reasonably possible use its best endeavours to obtain the necessary facilities and rights in other land in which the alternative apparatus is to be constructed.

(4) Any alternative apparatus to be constructed in land of the undertaker under this Part of this Schedule must be constructed in such manner and in such line or situation as may be agreed between the relevant statutory undertaker and the undertaker or in default of agreement settled by arbitration in accordance with article 52 (arbitration).

(5) The relevant statutory undertaker must, after the alternative apparatus to be provided or constructed has been agreed or settled by arbitration in accordance with article 52 (arbitration), and after the grant to the statutory undertaker of any such facilities and rights as are referred to in sub-paragraph (3), proceed without unnecessary delay to construct and bring into operation the alternative apparatus and subsequently to remove any apparatus required by the undertaker to be removed under the provisions of this Part of this Schedule.

(6) Regardless of anything in sub-paragraph (5), if the undertaker gives notice in writing to the relevant statutory undertaker that it desires itself to execute any work, or part of any work in connection with the construction or removal of apparatus, that work, instead of being executed by the statutory undertaker, must be executed by the undertaker without unnecessary delay under the superintendence, if given, and to the reasonable satisfaction of the statutory undertaker.

(7) If the relevant statutory undertaker fails either reasonably to approve, or to provide reasons for its failure to approve along with an indication of what would be required to make acceptable, any proposed details relating to required removal works under sub-paragraph (2) within 28 days of receiving a notice of the required works from the undertaker, then such details are deemed to have been approved. For the avoidance of doubt, any such “deemed consent” does not extend to the actual undertaking of the removal works, which shall remain the sole responsibility of the relevant statutory undertaker or its contractors.

5.—(1) Not less than 28 days before starting the execution of any works of the type referred to in paragraph 4(2) that are near to, or will affect, any apparatus the removal of which has not been required by the undertaker under paragraph 4(2), the undertaker must submit to the relevant statutory undertaker a plan, section and description of the works to be executed.

(2) Those works must be executed only in accordance with the plan, section and description submitted under sub-paragraph (1) and in accordance with such reasonable requirements as may be made in accordance with sub-paragraph (3) by the statutory undertaker for the alteration or otherwise for the protection of the apparatus, or for securing access to it, and the statutory undertaker is entitled to watch and inspect the execution of those works.

(3) Any requirements made by a statutory undertaker under sub-paragraph (2) must be made within a period of 28 days beginning with the date on which a plan, section and description under sub-paragraph (1) are submitted to it.

(4) If a statutory undertaker in accordance with sub-paragraph (3) and in consequence of the works proposed by the undertaker, reasonably requires the removal of any apparatus and gives written notice to the undertaker of that requirement, sub-paragraphs (1) to (3) apply as if the removal of the apparatus had been required by the undertaker under paragraph 4(2).

(5) Nothing in this paragraph precludes the undertaker from submitting at any time or from time to time, but in no case less than 28 days before commencing the execution of any works, a new plan, section and description instead of the plan, section and description previously submitted, and having done so the provisions of this paragraph apply to and in respect of the new plan, section and description.

(6) The undertaker is not required to comply with sub-paragraph (1) in a case of emergency but in that case it must give to the relevant statutory undertaker notice as soon as is reasonably practicable and a plan, section and description of those works as soon as reasonably practicable subsequently and must comply with sub-paragraph (2) in so far as is reasonably practicable in the circumstances.

6.—(1) Subject to the following provisions of this paragraph, the undertaker must repay to the relevant statutory undertaker the proper and reasonable expenses reasonably incurred by that statutory undertaker in, or in connection with, the inspection, removal, alteration or protection of any apparatus.

(2) The value of any apparatus removed under the provisions of this Part of the Schedule is to be deducted from any sum payable under sub-paragraph (1), that value being calculated after removal.

(3) If in accordance with the provisions of this Part of this Schedule—

(a)apparatus of better type, of greater capacity or of greater dimensions is placed in substitution for existing apparatus of worse type, of smaller capacity or of smaller dimensions; or

(b)apparatus (whether existing apparatus or apparatus substituted for existing apparatus) is placed at a depth greater than the depth at which the existing apparatus was,

and the placing of apparatus of that type or capacity or of those dimensions or the placing of apparatus at that depth, as the case may be, is not agreed by the undertaker or, in default of agreement, is not determined by arbitration in accordance with article 52 (arbitration) to be necessary, then, if such placing involves cost in the construction of works under this Part of this Schedule exceeding that which would have been involved if the apparatus placed had been of the existing type, capacity or dimensions, or at the existing depth, as the case may be, the amount which apart from this sub-paragraph would be payable to the relevant statutory undertaker by virtue of sub-paragraph (1) is to be reduced by the amount of that excess.

(4) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (3)—

(a)an extension of apparatus to a length greater than the length of existing apparatus is not to be treated as a placing of apparatus of greater dimensions than those of the existing apparatus; and

(b)where the provision of a joint in a cable is agreed, or is determined to be necessary, the consequential provision of a jointing chamber or of a manhole is to be treated as if it also had been agreed or had been so determined.

(5) An amount which apart from this sub-paragraph would be payable to a statutory undertaker in respect of works by virtue of sub-paragraph (1) must, if the works include the placing of apparatus provided in substitution for apparatus placed more than 7 years and 6 months earlier so as to confer on the relevant statutory undertaker any financial benefit by deferment of the time for renewal of the apparatus in the ordinary course, be reduced by the amount which represents that benefit.

PART 2PROTECTION FOR OPERATORS OF ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS CODE NETWORKS

7.—(1) For the protection of any operator, the following provisions, unless otherwise agreed in writing between the undertaker and the operator, have effect.

(2) In this Part of this Schedule—

conduit system” has the same meaning as in the electronic communications code and references to providing a conduit system are to be construed in accordance with paragraph 1(3A) of that code;

electronic communications apparatus” has the same meaning as in the electronic communications code;

the electronic communications code” has the same meaning as in Chapter 1 of Part 2 of the Communications Act 2003(91);

electronic communications code network” means—

(a)

so much of an electronic communications network or conduit system provided by an electronic communications code operator as is not excluded from the application of the electronic communications code by a direction under section 106 (application of the electronic communications code) of the Communications Act 2003; and

(b)

an electronic communications network which the Secretary of State is providing or proposing to provide;

electronic communications code operator” means a person in whose case the electronic communications code is applied by a direction under section 106 (application of the electronic communications code) of the Communications Act 2003; and

operator” means the operator of an electronic communications code network.

8.  The exercise of the powers of article 40 (statutory undertakers) are subject to paragraph 23 of Schedule 2 (the telecommunications code) to the Telecommunications Act 1984(92).

9.—(1) Subject to sub-paragraphs (2) to (3), if as the result of the authorised development or their construction, or of any subsidence resulting from any of those works any damage is caused to any electronic communications apparatus belonging to an operator (other than apparatus the repair of which is not reasonably necessary in view of its intended removal for the purposes of those works, or other property of an operator) the undertaker must bear and pay the cost reasonably and properly incurred by the operator in making good such damage.

(2) Nothing in sub-paragraph (1) imposes any liability on the undertaker with respect to any damage to the extent that it is attributable to the act, neglect or default of an operator, its officers, servants, contractors or agents.

(3) The operator must give the undertaker reasonable notice of any such claim or demand and no settlement or compromise of the claim or demand is to be made without the consent of the undertaker which consent must not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(4) Any difference arising between the undertaker and the operator under this paragraph must be referred to and settled by arbitration under article 52 (arbitration).

10.  This Part of this Schedule does not apply to—

(a)any apparatus in respect of which the relations between the undertaker and an operator are regulated by the provisions of Part 3 of the 1991 Act; or

(b)any damage, or any interruption, caused by electro-magnetic interference arising from the construction or use of the authorised development.

11.  Nothing in this Part of this Schedule affects the provisions of any enactment or agreement regulating the relations between the undertaker and an operator in respect of any apparatus laid or erected in land belonging to the undertaker on the date on which this Order is made.

PART 3FOR THE PROTECTION OF THE CANAL & RIVER TRUST

Fencing

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

Survey of waterway

15.—(1) Before the initial construction or, to the extent that it would affect the waterway or any function of the Trust, maintenance of any part of the specified work and again following practical completion of the specified work the undertaker must bear the reasonable and proper cost of the carrying out by a qualified engineer (the “surveyor”), to be approved by the Trust and the undertaker (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), of a survey (“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 work.

(2) For the purposes of the survey the undertaker must—

(a)on being given reasonable notice (save in case of emergency, when immediate access must be afforded) afford reasonable facilities to the surveyor for access to the site of the specified work 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 work; and

(3) Copies of the survey must be provided to both the Trust and the undertaker at no cost to the Trust.

(4) The surveyor must undertake the survey required under sub-paragraph (1) in a timely manner so as to cause no unreasonable delay to the initial construction or, to the extent that it would affect the waterway or any function of the Trust, maintenance of any part of the specified work.

Approval of plans etc.

16.—(1) The undertaker must before the initial construction or, to the extent that it would affect the waterway or any function of the Trust, commencement of maintenance of any specified work including any temporary works supply to the Trust proper and sufficient plans of that work having regard to the Trust’s Code of Practice and such further particulars available to it as the Trust may within 14 days of the submission of the plans reasonably require for the approval of the engineer and must not commence such construction or, to the extent that it would affect the waterway or any function of the Trust, maintenance of a specified work until plans of that work have been approved in writing by the engineer or settled by arbitration.

(2) Subject to sub-paragraph (3), an application for approval under this paragraph is deemed to have been approved if it is neither given nor refused within 28 days of the specified day.

(3) An approval of the engineer under this paragraph is not deemed to have been unreasonably withheld if approval within the time specified by sub-paragraph (2) has not been given pending the outcome of any consultation on the approval in question that the Trust is obliged to carry out in the proper exercise of its functions.

(4) In this paragraph “the specified day” means, in relation to any specified works—

(a)the day on which plans and sections of that work are submitted to the Trust under sub-paragraph (1); or

(b)the day on which the undertaker provides the Trust with all further particulars of the work that have been requested by the Trust under that sub-paragraph,

whichever is the later.

Failure to complete specified works

17.  In the event that the undertaker fails to complete the construction of, or part of, the specified work by the end of the construction period for the stage within which the specified work is included the Trust may, if it is reasonably required in order to avoid detriment, serve on the undertaker a notice in writing requesting that the specified work be completed. Any notice served under this paragraph must state the works that are to be completed by the undertaker and lay out a reasonable timetable for the works’ completion. The undertaker must complete the specified work as soon as reasonably practicable following receipt of any such notice. If the undertaker fails to comply with this notice within 35 days, the Trust may, so far as it is capable, construct any of the specified works, or part of such works, (together with any adjoining works), except for Work No. 6 (XC and XCP overhead electric lines, and XC overhead electric line) of Schedule 1 (authorised development), in order to complete the specified work, or part of them, and the undertaker must reimburse the Trust all costs, fees, charges and expenses it has reasonably incurred in carrying out such works.

Lighting

18.  The undertaker must provide and maintain at its own expense in the vicinity of the specified work such temporary lighting and such signal lights for the control of navigation as the engineer may reasonably require during the construction or, to the extent that it would affect the waterway or any function of the Trust, maintenance of the specified work.

Construction of specified works

19.—(1) Any specified work must, be constructed and maintained—

(a)with all reasonable dispatch in accordance with any such plans approved or deemed to have been approved or settled as aforesaid and with any specifications made under paragraph 16 of this Part;

(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 the Trust, its officers and agents and all other persons lawfully using the waterways, except to the extent that any temporary obstruction or restriction or diversion of the rights of navigation have otherwise been agreed by the Trust or are permitted under this Part;

(e)in such a manner as to ensure that no materials are discharged or deposited into the waterway under this Order otherwise than in accordance with article 19 (discharge of water); and

(f)in compliance with the Code of Practice.

(2) Nothing in this Order authorises the undertaker to make or maintain any permanent works in or over the waterway so as to impede or prevent (whether by reducing the width of the waterway or otherwise) the passage of any vessel which is of a kind (as to its dimensions) for which the Trust is required by section 105(1)(b) and (2) (maintenance of waterways) of the Transport Act 1968 to maintain the waterway.

(3) Following the completion of the construction and, to the extent that it would affect the waterway or any function of the Trust, any maintenance of the specified work the undertaker must restore the waterway, save in respect of the retention of the new permanent overhead line comprised in Work No. 6 (XC and XCP overhead electric lines, and XC overhead electric line) of Schedule 1 (authorised development), to a condition no less satisfactory than its condition immediately prior to construction or maintenance of that work, unless otherwise agreed between the undertaker and the Trust.

(4) In assessing whether the condition of the waterway is no less satisfactory than its condition immediately prior to the works pursuant to sub-paragraph (3), the Trust and the undertaker must take account of any survey issued pursuant to paragraph 15 and any other information agreed between them pursuant to this Part.

Access to work – provision of information

20.—(1) The undertaker on being given reasonable notice must—

(a)at all reasonable times allow reasonable facilities to the engineer for access to a specified work during its construction and, to the extent that it would affect the waterway or any function of the Trust, maintenance; and

(c)in bringing the specified work to the notice of users of the Trust’s network; and

(d)in constructing and/or carrying out any measures as a result of any specified work which are reasonably required by the Trust to ensure the safe navigation of the waterway save that nothing is to require the Trust to construct and/or carry out any measures.

(2) If the Trust considers that a fee, charge, cost or expense will be payable by the undertaker pursuant to sub-paragraph (1), the Trust will first provide an estimate of that fee, charge, cost or expense and supporting information in relation to the estimate to the undertaker along with a proposed timescale for payment for consideration and the undertaker may, within a period of twenty-one days—

(a)provide confirmation to the Trust that the estimate is agreed and pay to the Trust, by the date stipulated, that fee, charge, cost or expense; or

(b)provide confirmation to the Trust that the estimate is not accepted along with a revised estimate and a proposal as to how or why the undertaker considers that the estimate can be reduced and/or paid at a later date.

(3) The Trust must take in to account any representations made by the undertaker in accordance with this paragraph 22 and must, within twenty-one days of receipt of the information pursuant to sub-paragraph (1), confirm the amount of the fee, charge, cost or expense to be paid by the undertaker (if any) and the date by which this is to be paid.

(4) any dispute as to the fee, charge, cost or expense specified by the Trust pursuant to sub-paragraph (3) will be settled by arbitration in accordance with article 52 (arbitration) of this Order.

(b)in respect of the approval by the engineer of plans submitted by the undertaker and the supervision by the engineer of the construction of a specified work;

(c)in respect of the employment or procurement of the services of any inspectors, signallers, watch-persons and other persons whom it is reasonably necessary to appoint for inspecting, signalling, watching and lighting railway property and for preventing, so far as may be reasonably practicable, interference, obstruction, danger or accident arising from the construction or failure of a specified work;

(d)in respect of any special traffic working resulting from any speed restrictions which may in the opinion of the engineer, need to be imposed by reason or in consequence of the construction or failure of a specified work or from the substitution or diversion of services which may be reasonably necessary for the same reason; and

(e)in respect of any additional temporary lighting of railway property in the vicinity of the specified works, being lighting made reasonably necessary by reason or in consequence of the construction or failure of a specified work,

provided that any costs incurred arising from an act or omission of Network Rail, will not be paid by the undertaker.

36.—(1) In this paragraph—

EMI” means, subject to sub-paragraph (2), electromagnetic interference with Network Rail apparatus generated by the operation of the authorised development where such interference is of a level which adversely affects the safe operation of Network Rail’s apparatus; and

Network Rail’s apparatus” means any lines, circuits, wires, apparatus or equipment (whether or not modified or installed as part of the authorised development) which are owned or used by Network Rail for the purpose of transmitting or receiving electrical energy or of radio, telegraphic, telephonic, electric, electronic or other like means of signalling or other communications.

(2) This paragraph 36 applies to EMI only to the extent that such EMI is not attributable to any change to Network Rail’s apparatus carried out after approval of plans under paragraph 30(1) for the relevant part of the authorised development giving rise to EMI (unless the undertaker has been given notice in writing before the approval of those plans of the intention to make such change).

(3) Subject to sub-paragraph (5), the undertaker must in the design and construction of the authorised development take all measures necessary to prevent EMI risks and must establish with Network Rail (both parties acting reasonably) appropriate arrangements to verify their effectiveness.

(4) In order to facilitate the undertaker’s compliance with sub-paragraph (3)—

(a)the undertaker must consult with Network Rail as early as reasonably practicable to identify all Network Rail’s apparatus which may be at risk of EMI, and thereafter continue to consult with Network Rail (both before and after formal submission of plans under paragraph 30(1)) in order to identify all potential causes of EMI and the measures required to eliminate them;

(b)the undertaker must provide an EMI interface study (such study to include consideration of transferred voltage potentials, radiated interference to signalling equipment and compliance with the Control of Electromagnetic field at Work Regulations 2016 and British Standard EN 50122 as applicable) for approval, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed but may be provided subject to reasonable conditions;

(c)Network Rail must make available to the undertaker all information in the possession of Network Rail reasonably requested by the undertaker in respect of Network Rail’s apparatus identified pursuant to sub-paragraph (a); and

(d)Network Rail must allow the undertaker reasonable facilities for the inspection of Network Rail’s apparatus identified pursuant to sub-paragraph (a).

(5) In any case where it is established that EMI can only reasonably be prevented by modifications to Network Rail’s apparatus, Network Rail must not withhold its consent unreasonably to modifications of Network Rail’s apparatus, but Network Rail may, in its reasonable discretion, select the means of prevention and the method of their execution, and in relation to such modifications paragraph 30(1) has effect subject to this sub-paragraph.

(6) The undertaker shall use reasonable endeavours not to allow the use or operation of the authorised development in a manner that causes EMI and which introduces an intolerable risk to the operation of the railway or the safety of the track workers (such intolerable risk would include introducing exposure to electric and magnetic fields in excess of the requirements of the Control of Electromagnetic field at Work Regulations 2016, unacceptable transferred voltage potentials and interference impacting the safe operation of the signalling equipment), until measures have been taken in accordance with this paragraph to reduce the risk to tolerable levels of EMI.

Northern Powergrid” means Northern Powergrid (Yorkshire) PLC (Company Number 04112320) whose registered address is Lloyds Court, 78 Grey Street, Newcastle upon Tyne NE1 6AF.

49.  This Part of this Schedule does not apply to apparatus in respect of which the relations between the undertaker and Northern Powergrid are regulated by the provisions of Part 3 (street works in England and Wales) of the 1991 Act.

50.  Regardless of any provision in this Order or anything shown on the land plans, or contained in the book of reference, the undertaker shall not acquire any apparatus, or override any easement or other interest of Northern Powergrid otherwise than by agreement with Northern Powergrid, such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

51.—(1) If, in the exercise of the powers conferred by this Order, the undertaker acquires any interest in any land in which any apparatus is placed or over which access to any apparatus is enjoyed or requires that Northern Powergrid’s apparatus is relocated or diverted, that apparatus must not be removed under this Part of this Schedule, and any right of Northern Powergrid to maintain that apparatus in that land and to gain access to it must not be extinguished, until alternative apparatus has been constructed and is in operation, and access to it has been provided pursuant to a completed easement for a tenure no less than exists to the apparatus being relocated or diverted, all to the reasonable satisfaction of Northern Powergrid in accordance with sub-paragraphs (2) to (7).

(2) If, for the purpose of executing any works in, on or under any land purchased, held, appropriated or used under this Order, the undertaker requires the removal of any apparatus placed in that land, the undertaker must give to Northern Powergrid 42 days’ advance written notice of that requirement, together with a plan and section of the work proposed, and of the proposed position of the alternative apparatus to be provided or constructed and in that case (or if in consequence of the exercise of any of the powers conferred by this Order Northern Powergrid reasonably needs to remove any of its apparatus) the undertaker must, subject to sub-paragraph (3), afford to Northern Powergrid the necessary facilities and rights for the construction of alternative apparatus in other land of the undertaker within the Order limits and subsequently for the maintenance of that apparatus.

(3) If alternative apparatus or any part of such apparatus is to be constructed elsewhere than in other land of the undertaker, or the undertaker is unable to afford such facilities and rights as are mentioned in sub-paragraph (2), in the land in which the alternative apparatus or part of such apparatus is to be constructed, Northern Powergrid must, on receipt of a written notice to that effect from the undertaker, as soon as reasonably practicable and at the cost of the undertaker (subject to prior approval by the undertaker of its estimate of costs of doing so) use reasonable endeavours to obtain the necessary facilities and rights in the land in which the alternative apparatus is to be constructed save that this obligation shall not extend to the requirement for Northern Powergrid to use its compulsory purchase powers to this end unless—

(a)the undertaker has first used reasonable endeavours to acquire the relevant land, rights and/or interests and provided reasonable evidence of the same to Northern Powergrid in accordance with the measures set out in the plan (in default of agreement, the reasonableness of any such measures to be determined through arbitration under article 52 (arbitration)); and

(b)the undertaker and Northern Powergrid agree (or in default of agreement, it is determined through arbitration under article 52 (arbitration)) that the promotion of compulsory purchase powers by the undertaker would be significantly more onerous than the exercise of Northern Powergrid’s own compulsory powers.

(4) Any alternative apparatus to be constructed in land of the undertaker within the order limits under this Part of this Schedule must be constructed in such manner and in such line or situation as may be agreed between Northern Powergrid and the undertaker or in default of agreement settled by arbitration in accordance with article 52 (arbitration).

(5) Northern Powergrid must, after the alternative apparatus to be provided or constructed has been agreed or settled by arbitration in accordance with article 52 (arbitration), and after the grant to Northern Powergrid of any such facilities and rights as are referred to in sub-paragraph (2) or (3), proceed without unnecessary delay to construct and bring into operation the alternative apparatus and subsequently to remove any apparatus required by the undertaker to be removed under the provisions of this Part of this Schedule.

52.—(1) Where, in accordance with the provisions of this Part of this Schedule, the undertaker affords to Northern Powergrid facilities and rights for the construction and maintenance in land of the undertaker of alternative apparatus in substitution for apparatus to be removed, those facilities and rights must be granted upon such terms and conditions as may be agreed between the undertaker and Northern Powergrid or in default of agreement settled by arbitration in accordance with article 52 (arbitration).

(2) If the facilities and rights to be afforded by the undertaker in respect of any alternative apparatus, and the terms and conditions subject to which those facilities and rights are to be granted, are in the opinion of the arbitrator less favourable on the whole to Northern Powergrid than the facilities and rights enjoyed by it in respect of the apparatus to be removed and the terms and conditions to which those facilities and rights are subject, the arbitrator must make such provision for the payment of compensation by the undertaker to Northern Powergrid as appears to the arbitrator to be reasonable having regard to all the circumstances of the particular case.

53.—(1) Not less than 48 days before starting the execution of any works in, on or under any land purchased, held, appropriated or used under this Order that are within 15m of any above ground apparatus and / or to a depth of between 0.4m below ground level of apparatus (including conducting any activities whether intentionally or unintentionally, through for example ground or machinery collapse, which may affect Northern Powergrid’s apparatus or encroach on safety distances to live equipment) or will or may affect, any apparatus the removal of which has not been required by the undertaker under paragraph 51(2), the undertaker must submit to Northern Powergrid a plan, section and description of the works to be executed.

(2) Those works must be executed only in accordance with the plan, section and description submitted under sub-paragraph (1) and in accordance with such reasonable requirements as may be made in accordance with sub-paragraph (3) by Northern Powergrid for the alteration or otherwise for the protection of the apparatus, or for securing access to it, and Northern Powergrid is entitled to watch and inspect the execution of those works.

(3) Any requirements made by Northern Powergrid under sub-paragraph (2) must be made within a period of 42 days beginning with the date on which a plan, section and description under sub- paragraph (1) are submitted to it.

(4) If Northern Powergrid in accordance with sub-paragraph (3) and in consequence of the works proposed by the undertaker, reasonably requires the removal of any apparatus and gives written notice to the undertaker of that requirement, paragraphs 47 to 52 apply as if the removal of the apparatus had been required by the undertaker under paragraph (2).

(5) Nothing in this paragraph precludes the undertaker from submitting at any time or from time to time, but in no case less than 35 days before commencing the execution of any works, a new plan, section and description instead of the plan, section and description previously submitted, and having done so the provisions of this paragraph apply to and in respect of the new plan, section and description.

(6) The undertaker is not required to comply with sub-paragraph (1) in a case of emergency but in that case it must give to Northern Powergrid notice as soon as is reasonably practicable and a plan, section and description of those works as soon as reasonably practicable subsequently and must comply with sub-paragraph (2) in so far as is reasonably practicable in the circumstances.

54.—(1) Subject to the following provisions of this paragraph, the undertaker must repay to Northern Powergrid all reasonable and proper expenses costs or charges incurred by Northern Powergrid—

(a)in, or in connection with, the inspection, removal, alteration or protection of any apparatus or the construction of any new apparatus which may be required in consequence of the execution of any such works as are referred to in paragraph 51(2) including—

(i)any costs reasonably incurred or compensation properly paid in connection with the acquisition of rights or the exercise of statutory powers for such apparatus including without limitation in the event that it is agreed Northern Powergrid elects to use compulsory purchase powers to acquire any necessary rights under paragraph 51(3) all costs reasonably incurred as a result of such action;

(ii)in connection with the cost of the carrying out of any diversion work or the provision of any alternative apparatus;

(iii)the cutting off of any apparatus from any other apparatus or the making safe of redundant apparatus;

(iv)the approval of plans;

(v)the carrying out of protective works, plus a capitalised sum to cover the cost of maintaining and renewing permanent protective works;

(vi)the survey of any land, apparatus or works, the inspection and monitoring of works or the installation or removal of any temporary works reasonably necessary in consequence of the execution of any such works referred to in this Part of this Schedule); and

(b)in assessing and preparing a design for its apparatus to address and accommodate the proposals of the undertaker whether or not the undertaker proceeds to implement those proposals or alternative or none at all,

provided that if it so prefers Northern Powergrid may abandon apparatus that the undertaker does not seek to remove in accordance with paragraph 51(1) having first decommissioned such apparatus.

(2) There is to be deducted from any sum payable under sub-paragraph (1) the value of any apparatus removed under the provisions of this Part of this Schedule, that value being calculated after removal and for the avoidance of doubt, if the apparatus removed under the provisions of this Part of this Schedule has nil value, no sum will be deducted from the amount payable under sub-paragraph (1) if in accordance with the provisions of this Part of this Schedule—

(a)apparatus of better type, of greater capacity or of greater dimensions is placed in substitution for existing apparatus of worse type, of smaller capacity or of smaller dimensions; or

(b)apparatus (whether existing apparatus or apparatus substituted for existing apparatus) is placed at a depth greater than the depth at which the existing apparatus was

and the placing of apparatus of that type or capacity or of those dimensions or the placing of apparatus at that depth, as the case may be, is not agreed by the undertaker or, in default of agreement, is not determined by arbitration in accordance with article 52 (arbitration) to be necessary, then, if such placing involves cost in the construction of works under this Part of this Schedule exceeding that which would have been involved if the apparatus placed had been of the existing type, capacity or dimensions, or at the existing depth, as the case may be, the amount which apart from this sub-paragraph would be payable to Northern Powergrid by virtue of sub-paragraph (1) is to be reduced by the amount of that excess save where it is not possible on account of project time limits and/or supply issues to obtain the existing type of operations, capacity, dimensions or place at the existing depth in which case full costs shall be borne by the undertaker.

(3) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (2)—

(a)an extension of apparatus to a length greater than the length of existing apparatus is not to be treated as a placing of apparatus of greater dimensions than those of the existing apparatus where such extension is required in consequence of the execution of any such works as are referred to in paragraph 51(2); and

(b)where the provision of a joint in a cable is agreed, or is determined to be necessary, the consequential provision of a jointing chamber or of a manhole is to be treated as if it also had been agreed or had been so determined.

(4) Where any payment falls due pursuant to paragraph 54 (1), NPG shall—

(i)provide an itemised invoice or reasonable expenses claim to the Undertaker; and

(ii)provide ‘reminder letters’ to the undertaker for payment to be made within the fifty days on the following days after the invoice or reasonable expenses claim to the undertaker—

(aa)15 days (‘reminder letter 1’)

(bb)29 days (‘reminder letter 2’)

(cc)43 days (‘reminder letter 3’)

(iii)commence debt proceedings to recover any unpaid itemised invoice or reasonable expenses claim on the fiftieth day of receipt of the same where payment has not been made.

55.—(1) Subject to sub-paragraphs (2) and (3), if by reason or in consequence of the construction of any of the works referred to in in paragraph 51(2), or in consequence of the, maintenance or failure of any of the authorised works by or on behalf of the undertaker or in consequence of any act or default of the undertaker (or any person employed or authorised by it) in the course of carrying out such works, including without limitation works carried out by the undertaker under this Schedule or any subsidence resulting from any of these works any damage is caused to any apparatus (other than apparatus the repair of which is not reasonably necessary in view of its intended removal for the purposes of those works) or property of Northern Powergrid, or there is any interruption in any service provided by Northern Powergrid, or Northern Powergrid becomes liable to pay any amount to a third party as a consequence of any default, negligence or omission by the undertaker in carrying out the authorised works, the undertaker must—

(a)bear and pay the cost reasonably incurred by Northern Powergrid in making good such damage or restoring the supply; and

(b)reimburse Northern Powergrid for any other expenses, loss, damages, penalty, proceedings, claims or costs incurred by or recovered from Northern Powergrid,

by reason or in consequence of any such damage or interruption or Northern Powergrid becoming liable to any third party.

(2) Nothing in sub-paragraph (1) imposes any liability on the undertaker with respect to any damage or interruption to the extent that it is attributable to the act, neglect or default of Northern Powergrid, its officers, employees, servants, contractors or agents.

(3) Northern Powergrid must give the undertaker reasonable notice of any such claim or demand and no settlement or compromise is to be made without the consent of the undertaker which, if it withholds such consent, has the sole conduct of any settlement or compromise or of any proceedings necessary to resist the claim or demand.

(4) Northern Powergrid must use its reasonable endeavours to mitigate in whole or in part and to minimise any costs, expenses, loss, demands, and penalties to which this paragraph applies. If requested to do so by the undertaker, Northern Powergrid must provide an explanation of how the claim has been minimised or details to substantiate any cost or compensation claimed pursuant to sub-paragraph (1). The undertaker shall only be liable under this paragraph for claims reasonably incurred by Northern Powergrid.

56.  Nothing in this Part of this Schedule affects the provisions of any enactment or agreement regulating the relations between the undertaker and Northern Powergrid in respect of any apparatus laid or erected in land belonging to the undertaker on the date on which this Order is made.

57.  Where in consequence of the proposed construction of any of the authorised development, the undertaker or Northern Powergrid requires the removal of apparatus under paragraph 51 or otherwise or Northern Powergrid makes requirements for the protection or alteration of apparatus under paragraph 53, the undertaker shall use its reasonable endeavours to co-ordinate the execution of the works in the interests of safety and the need to ensure the safe and efficient operation of Northern Powergrid’s undertaking taking into account the undertaker’s desire for the efficient and economic execution of the authorised development and the undertaker and Northern Powergrid shall use reasonable endeavours to co-operate with each other for those purposes.

58.  If in consequence of an agreement reached in accordance with paragraph 56 or the powers granted under this Order the access to any apparatus or alternative apparatus is materially obstructed, the undertaker shall provide such alternative means of access to such apparatus or alternative apparatus as will enable Northern Powergrid to maintain or use the said apparatus no less effectively than was possible before such obstruction.

59.  The plans submitted to Northern Powergrid by the undertaker pursuant to this Part of the Schedule must be sent to Northern Powergrid at property@northernpowergrid.comor such other address as Northern Powergrid may from time to time appoint instead for that purpose and notify to the undertaker in writing.

60.  Where practicable, the undertaker and Northern Powergrid will make reasonable efforts to liaise and co-operate in respect of information that is relevant to the safe and efficient construction operation and maintenance of the authorised development. Such liaison shall be carried out where any works are—

On Street Apparatus

83.  Except for paragraphs 84 (apparatus of NGT in affected streets), 89 (retained apparatus: protection), 90 (expenses) and 91 (indemnity) of this Schedule which will apply in respect of the exercise of all or any powers under the Order affecting the rights and apparatus of NGT, the other provisions of this Schedule do not apply to apparatus in respect of which the relations between the undertaker and NGT are regulated by the provisions of Part 3 of the 1991 Act.

Apparatus of NGT in affected streets

84.—(1) Where any street is permanently stopped up under any article of this Order, if NGT has any apparatus in the street or accessed via that street NGT has the same rights in respect of that apparatus as it enjoyed immediately before the stopping up and the undertaker must grant to NGT, or procure the granting to NGT of, legal easements reasonably satisfactory to NGT in respect of such apparatus and access to it prior to the stopping up of any such street or highway but nothing in this paragraph affects any right of the undertaker or NGT to require the removal of that apparatus or the power of the undertaker, subject to compliance with this sub-paragraph, to carry out works.

(2) Notwithstanding the temporary closure or diversion of any highway under the powers of article 14 (temporary closure of streets, cycle tracks and public rights of way), NGT is at liberty at all times to take all necessary access across any such closed highway and to execute and do all such works and things in, upon or under any such highway as are reasonably necessary to carry out at the time of the temporary closure to enable it to maintain any apparatus which at the time of the closure or diversion was in that highway.

Protective works to buildings

85.  The undertaker, in the case of the powers conferred by article 20 (protective work to buildings), must exercise those powers so as not to obstruct or render less convenient the access to any apparatus without the written consent of NGT.

Acquisition of land

86.—(1) Regardless of any provision in this Order or anything shown on the land plans or contained in the book of reference to the Order, the undertaker may not (a) appropriate or acquire or take temporary possession of any land or apparatus or (b) appropriate, acquire, extinguish, interfere with or override any easement, other interest or right and/or apparatus of NGT otherwise than by agreement.

(2) As a condition of an agreement between the parties in sub-paragraph (1), prior to the carrying out of any part of the specified works (or in such other timeframe as may be agreed between NGT and the undertaker) that will cause any conflict with or breach the terms of any easement or other legal or land interest of NGT or affect the provisions of any enactment or agreement regulating the relations between NGT and the undertaker in respect of any apparatus laid or erected in land belonging to or secured by the undertaker, the undertaker must as NGT reasonably requires enter into such deeds of consent upon such terms and conditions as may be agreed between NGT and the undertaker acting reasonably and which must be no less favourable on the whole to NGT unless otherwise agreed by NGT, and it will be the responsibility of the undertaker to procure and/or secure the consent and entering into of such deeds and variations by all other third parties with an interest in the land at that time who are affected by such authorised works.

(3) Save where otherwise agreed in writing between NGT and the undertaker the undertaker and NGT agree that where there is any inconsistency or duplication between the provisions set out in this Part of this Schedule relating to the relocation and/or removal of apparatus/including but not limited to the payment of costs and expenses relating to such relocation and/or removal of apparatus) and the provisions of any existing easement, rights, agreements and licences granted, used, enjoyed or exercised by NGT and/or other enactments relied upon by NGT as of right or other use in relation to the apparatus, then the provisions in this Schedule shall prevail.

(4) Any agreement or consent granted by NGT under paragraph 89 or any other paragraph of this Part of this Schedule, shall not be taken to constitute agreement under sub-paragraph (1).

Removal of apparatus

87.—(1) If, in the exercise of the powers conferred by this Order, the undertaker acquires any interest in or possesses temporarily any land in which any apparatus is placed, that apparatus must not be removed under this Part of this Schedule and any right of NGT to maintain that apparatus in that land must not be extinguished until alternative apparatus has been constructed, and is in operation to the reasonable satisfaction of NGT in accordance with sub-paragraph (2) to (5).

(2) If, for the purpose of executing any works in, on, under or over any land purchased, held, appropriated or used under this Order, the undertaker requires the removal of any apparatus placed in that land, it must give to NGT advance written notice of that requirement, together with a plan of the work proposed, and of the proposed position of the alternative apparatus to be provided or constructed and in that case (or if in consequence of the exercise of any of the powers conferred by this Order NGT reasonably needs to remove any of its apparatus) the undertaker must, subject to sub-paragraph (3), secure any necessary consents for the alternative apparatus and afford to NGT to its satisfaction (taking into account paragraph 88(1)) the necessary facilities and rights—

(a)for the construction of alternative apparatus in other land of or land secured by the undertaker; and

(b)subsequently for the maintenance of that apparatus.

(3) If alternative apparatus or any part of such apparatus is to be constructed elsewhere than in other land of or land secured by the undertaker, or the undertaker is unable to afford such facilities and rights as are mentioned in sub-paragraph (2) in the land in which the alternative apparatus or part of such apparatus is to be constructed, NGT may in its sole discretion, on receipt of a written notice to that effect from the undertaker, take such steps as are reasonable in the circumstances to assist the undertaker to obtain the necessary facilities and rights in the land in which the alternative apparatus is to be constructed save that this obligation shall not extend to the requirement for NGT to use its compulsory purchase powers to this end unless it elects to so do.

(4) Any alternative apparatus to be constructed in land of or land secured by the undertaker under this Part of this Schedule must be constructed in such manner and in such line or situation as may be agreed between NGT and the undertaker acting reasonably.

(5) NGT must, after the alternative apparatus to be provided or constructed has been agreed, and subject to a written diversion agreement having been entered into between the parties and the grant to NGT of any such facilities and rights as are referred to in sub-paragraph (2) or (3), proceed without unnecessary delay to construct and bring into operation the alternative apparatus and subsequently to remove any apparatus required by the undertaker to be removed under the provisions of this Part of this Schedule.

(6) The provisions of this paragraph 87 only apply to the extent that the apparatus to be removed by the undertaker forms part of NGT’s undertaking and has not already been abandoned or decommissioned by NGT and any existing rights in respect of the abandoned or decommissioned apparatus have been surrendered.

Facilities and rights for alternative apparatus

88.—(1) Where, in accordance with the provisions of this Part of this Schedule, the undertaker affords to or secures for NGT facilities and rights in land for the construction, use, maintenance and protection of alternative apparatus in substitution for apparatus to be removed, those facilities and rights must be granted upon such terms and conditions as may be agreed between the undertaker acting reasonably and NGT and must be no less favourable on the whole to NGT than the facilities and rights enjoyed by it in respect of the apparatus to be removed unless otherwise agreed by NGT.

(2) If the facilities and rights to be afforded by the undertaker in respect of any alternative apparatus, and the terms and conditions subject to which those facilities and rights are to be granted, are less favourable on the whole to NGT than the facilities and rights enjoyed by it in respect of the apparatus to be removed and the terms and conditions to which those facilities and rights are subject the matter may be referred to arbitration in accordance with paragraph 95 (arbitration) of this Part of this Schedule and the arbitrator must make such provision for the payment of compensation by the undertaker to NGT as appears to the arbitrator to be reasonable having regard to all the circumstances of the particular case.

Retained apparatus: protection

89.—(1) Not less than 56 days before the commencement of any specified works the undertaker must submit to NGT a plan and, if reasonably required by NGT, a ground monitoring scheme in respect of those works.

(2) In relation to specified works the plan to be submitted to NGT under sub-paragraph (1) must include a method statement and describe—

(a)the exact position of the works;

(b)the level at which these are proposed to be constructed or renewed;

(d)the position of all apparatus;

(e)by way of detailed drawings, every alteration proposed to be made to or close to any such apparatus; and

(f)any intended maintenance regimes.

(3) The undertaker must not commence any works to which sub-paragraphs (1) and (2) apply until NGT has given written approval of the plan so submitted.

(4) Any approval of NGT required under sub-paragraph (3)—

(a)may be given subject to reasonable conditions for any purpose mentioned in sub-paragraphs (5) or (6); and

(b)must not be unreasonably withheld.

(5) In relation to any work to which sub-paragraphs (1) and/or (2) apply, NGT may require, within 21 days of submission of a plan by the undertaker under sub-paragraph (1), such modifications to be made to the plans as is reasonably necessary for the purpose of securing its apparatus against interference or risk of damage for the provision of protective works or for the purpose of providing or securing proper and convenient means of access to any apparatus.

(6) Works executed under sub-paragraphs (1) or (2) must be executed in accordance with the plan, submitted under sub-paragraph (1) or as relevant sub paragraph (5), as approved or as amended from time to time by agreement between the undertaker and NGT and in accordance with such reasonable requirements as may be made in accordance with sub-paragraphs (5) or (7) by NGT for the alteration or otherwise for the protection of the apparatus, or for securing access to it, and NGT will be entitled to watch and inspect the execution of those works.

(7) Where NGT requires any protective works to be carried out by itself or by the undertaker (whether of a temporary or permanent nature) such protective works, inclusive of any measures or schemes required and approved as part of the plan approved pursuant to this paragraph, must be carried out to NGTs’ satisfaction prior to the commencement of any specified works for which protective works are required and NGT must give notice of its requirement for such works within 21 days of the date of submission of a plan pursuant to this paragraph (except in an emergency).

(8) If NGT in accordance with sub-paragraphs (5) or (7) and in consequence of the works proposed by the undertaker, reasonably requires the removal of any apparatus and gives written notice to the undertaker of that requirement, sub-paragraphs (1), (2), (3), (6) and (7) apply as if the removal of the apparatus had been required by the undertaker under paragraph 87(2).

(9) Nothing in this paragraph precludes the undertaker from submitting at any time or from time to time, but in no case less than 56 days before commencing the execution of the specified works, a new plan, instead of the plan previously submitted, and having done so the provisions of this paragraph will apply to and in respect of the new plan.

(10) The undertaker will not be required to comply with sub-paragraph (1) where it needs to carry out emergency works as defined in the 1991 Act but in that case it must give to NGT notice as soon as is reasonably practicable and a plan of those works and must comply with sub-paragraphs (6), (7) and (8) insofar as is reasonably practicable in the circumstances and comply with sub paragraph (11) at all times;

(11) At all times when carrying out any specified works NGT must comply with NGT’s policies for safe working in proximity to gas apparatus “Specification for safe working in the vicinity of National Grid, High pressure Gas pipelines and associated installation requirements for third parties T/SP/SSW22” and HSE’s “HS(~G)47 Avoiding Danger from underground services”.

(12) As soon as reasonably practicable after any ground subsidence event attributable to the authorised development the undertaker shall implement an appropriate ground mitigation scheme save that NGT retains the right to carry out any further necessary protective works for the safeguarding of its apparatus and can recover any such costs in line with paragraph 90.

Expenses

90.—(1) Save where otherwise agreed in writing between NGT and the undertaker and subject to the following provisions of this paragraph, the undertaker must pay to NGT within 30 days of receipt of an itemised VAT invoice or claim from NGT all charges, costs and expenses or reasonably and properly incurred by NGT in, or in connection with, the inspection, removal, relaying or replacing, alteration or protection of any apparatus or the construction of any new or alternative apparatus which is required in consequence of the execution of any authorised works including without limitation—

(a)any costs reasonably incurred by or compensation properly paid by NGT in connection with the acquisition of rights or the exercise of statutory powers for such apparatus including without limitation all costs incurred by NGT as a consequence of NGT—

(i)using its own compulsory purchase powers to acquire any necessary rights under paragraph 87(3); or

(ii)exercising any compulsory purchase powers in the Order transferred to or benefitting NGT;

(b)in connection with the cost of the carrying out of any diversion work or the provision of any alternative apparatus, where no written diversion agreement is otherwise in place;

(c)the cutting off of any apparatus from any other apparatus or the making safe of redundant apparatus;

(d)the approval of plans;

(e)the carrying out of protective works, plus a capitalised sum to cover the cost of maintaining and renewing permanent protective works;

(f)the survey of any land, apparatus or works, the inspection and monitoring of works or the installation or removal of any temporary works reasonably necessary in consequence of the execution of any such works referred to in this Part of this Schedule.

(2) There will be deducted from any sum payable under sub-paragraph (1) the value of any apparatus removed under the provisions of this Part of this Schedule and which is not re-used as part of the alternative apparatus, that value being calculated after removal.

(3) If in accordance with the provisions of this Part of this Schedule—

(a)apparatus of better type, of greater capacity or of greater dimensions is placed in substitution for existing apparatus of worse type, of smaller capacity or of smaller dimensions; or

(b)apparatus (whether existing apparatus or apparatus substituted for existing apparatus) is placed at a depth greater than the depth at which the existing apparatus was situated,

and the placing of apparatus of that type or capacity or of those dimensions or the placing of apparatus at that depth, as the case may be, is not agreed by the undertaker or, in default of agreement, is not determined by arbitration in accordance with paragraph 95 (arbitration) to be necessary, then, if such placing involves cost in the construction of works under this Part of this Schedule exceeding that which would have been involved if the apparatus placed had been of the existing type, capacity or dimensions, or at the existing depth, as the case may be, the amount which apart from this sub-paragraph would be payable to NGT by virtue of sub-paragraph (1) will be reduced by the amount of that excess save to the extent that it is not possible in the circumstances to obtain the existing type of apparatus at the same capacity and dimensions or place at the existing depth in which case full costs will be borne by the undertaker.

(4) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (3)—

(a)an extension of apparatus to a length greater than the length of existing apparatus will not be treated as a placing of apparatus of greater dimensions than those of the existing apparatus; and

(b)where the provision of a joint in a pipe or cable is agreed, or is determined to be necessary, the consequential provision of a jointing chamber or of a manhole will be treated as if it also had been agreed or had been so determined.

(5) Any amount which apart from this sub-paragraph would be payable to NGT in respect of works by virtue of sub-paragraph (1) will, if the works include the placing of apparatus provided in substitution for apparatus placed more than 7 years and 6 months earlier so as to confer on NGT any financial benefit by deferment of the time for renewal of the apparatus in the ordinary course, be reduced by the amount which represents that benefit.

Indemnity

91.—(1) Subject to sub-paragraphs (2) and (3), if by reason or in direct consequence of the construction of any works authorised by or in direct consequence of the construction, use maintenance or failure of any of the authorised works by or on behalf of the undertaker or in consequence of any act or default of the undertaker (or any person employed or authorised by him) in the course of carrying out such authorised works, including works carried out by the undertaker under this Part of this Schedule or any subsidence resulting directly from any of these works, any damage is caused to any apparatus or alternative apparatus (other than apparatus the repair of which is not reasonably necessary in view of its intended removal for the purposes of the authorised works) or property of NGT, or there is any loss resulting directly from interruption in any service provided, or in the supply of any goods or energy, by NGT, or NGT becomes liable to pay any amount to any third party, the undertaker will—

(a)bear and pay on demand accompanied by an invoice or claim from NGT the cost reasonably and properly incurred by NGT in making good such damage or restoring the supply; and

(b)indemnify NGT for any other expenses, loss, demands, proceedings, damages, claims, penalty or costs incurred by or recovered from NGT, by reason or in consequence of any such damage or interruption or NGT becoming liable to any third party and including Network Code Claims other than arising from any default of NGT.

(2) For the avoidance of doubt, these indemnities shall not apply to penalties; or any indirect or consequential loss of any third party (including but not limited to loss of use, revenue, profit, contract, production, increased cost of working) arising from any such damage or interruption, which is not reasonably foreseeable.

(3) The fact that any act or thing may have been done by NGT on behalf of the undertaker or in accordance with a plan approved by NGT or in accordance with any requirement of NGT or under its supervision will not (unless sub-paragraph (3) applies), excuse the undertaker from liability under the provisions of this sub-paragraph (1) unless NGT fails to carry out and execute the works properly with due care and attention and in a skilful and workman like manner or in a manner that does not accord with the approved plan.

(4) Nothing in sub-paragraph (1) shall impose any liability on the undertaker in respect of—

(a)any damage or interruption to the extent that it is attributable to the neglect or default of NGT, its officers, servants, contractors or agents;

(b)any authorised works and/or any other works authorised by this Part of this Schedule carried out by NGT as an assignee, transferee or lessee of the undertaker with the benefit of the Order pursuant to section 156 of the Planning Act 2008 or article 7 (consent to transfer benefit of the Order) subject to the proviso that once such works become apparatus (“new apparatus”), any authorised works yet to be executed and not falling within this sub-paragraph will be subject to the full terms of this Part of this Schedule including this paragraph 91; and/or

(c)any indirect or consequential loss of any third party (including but not limited to loss of use, revenue, profit, contract, production, increased cost of working or business interruption) arising from any such damage or interruption, which is not reasonably foreseeable;

(5) NGT must give the undertaker reasonable notice of any such third party claim or demand and no settlement, admission of liability or compromise must, unless payment is required in connection with a statutory compensation scheme, be made without first consulting the undertaker and considering their representations.

(6) NGT must, in respect of any matter covered by the indemnity given by the undertaker in this paragraph, at all times act reasonably and in the same manner as it would as if settling third party claims on its own behalf from its own funds.

(7) NGT must use its reasonable endeavours to mitigate and to minimise any costs, expenses, loss, demands, and penalties to which the indemnity under this paragraph applies where it is within NGT’s reasonable ability and control to do so and which expressly excludes any obligation to mitigate liability arising from third parties which is outside of NGT’s control and if reasonably requested to do so by the undertaker NGT must provide an explanation of how the claim has been minimised, where relevant.

(8) Not to commence construction (and not to permit the commencement of such construction) of the authorised works on any land owned by NGT or in respect of which NGT has an easement or wayleave for its apparatus or any other interest or to carry out any works within 15 metres of NGT’s apparatus until the following conditions are satisfied—

(a)unless and until NGT is satisfied acting reasonably (but subject to all necessary regulatory constraints) that the undertaker has first provided the acceptable security (and provided evidence that it shall maintain such acceptable security for the construction period of the authorised works from the proposed date of commencement of construction of the authorised works) and NGT has confirmed the same to the undertaker in writing; and

(b)unless and until NGT is satisfied acting reasonably (but subject to all necessary regulatory constraints) that the undertaker has procured acceptable insurance (and provided evidence to NGT that it shall maintain such acceptable insurance for the construction period of the authorised works from the proposed date of commencement of construction of the authorised works) and NGT has confirmed the same in writing to the undertaker.

(9) In the event that the undertaker fails to comply with (7) of this Part of this Schedule, nothing in this Part of this Schedule shall prevent NGT from seeking injunctive relief (or any other equitable remedy) in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Enactments and agreements

92.  Save to the extent provided for to the contrary elsewhere in this Part of this Schedule or by agreement in writing between NGT and the undertaker, nothing in this Part of this Schedule affects the provisions of any enactment or agreement regulating the relations between the undertaker and NGT in respect of any apparatus laid or erected in land belonging to the undertaker on the date on which this Order is made.

Co-operation

93.—(1) Where in consequence of the proposed construction of any part of the authorised works, the undertaker or NGT requires the removal of apparatus under paragraph 87(2) or NGT makes requirements for the protection or alteration of apparatus under paragraph 89, the undertaker shall use its best endeavours to co-ordinate the execution of the works in the interests of safety and the efficient and economic execution of the authorised works and taking into account the need to ensure the safe and efficient operation of NGT’s undertaking and NGT shall use its best endeavours to co-operate with the undertaker for that purpose.

(2) For the avoidance of doubt whenever NGT’s consent, agreement or approval is required in relation to plans, documents or other information submitted by the undertaker or the taking of action by the undertaker, it must not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

Access

94.  Subject to paragraph 84, if in consequence of the agreement reached in accordance with paragraph 86(1) or the powers granted under this Order the access to any apparatus is materially obstructed, the undertaker must provide such alternative means of access to such apparatus as will enable NGT to maintain or use the apparatus no less effectively than was possible before such obstruction.

Arbitration

95.  Any difference or dispute arising between the undertaker and NGT under this Part of this Schedule must, unless otherwise agreed in writing between the undertaker and NGT, be determined by arbitration in accordance with article 52 (arbitration).

Notices

96.  Notwithstanding article 49 (Service of Notices), any plans submitted to NGT by the undertaker pursuant to paragraph 89 must be submitted to https://lsbud.co.uk/ or such other address as NGT may from time to time appoint instead for that purpose and notify to the undertaker in writing.

(5) Paragraph 105 (Expenses) of this Schedule applies to removal or diversions works under this paragraph 102, but the statutory undertaker must provide to the undertaker a reasonable cost estimate for works that it proposes to carry out for the undertaker’s approval.

Facilities and rights for alternative apparatus

103.—(1) Where, in accordance with the provisions of this Schedule, the undertaker affords to the statutory undertaker facilities and rights for the construction and maintenance in the undertaker’s land of alternative apparatus in substitution for apparatus to be removed, those facilities and rights shall be granted upon such terms and conditions as may be agreed between the undertaker and the statutory undertaker and shall be no less favourable on the whole to the statutory undertaker than the facilities and rights enjoyed by it in respect of the apparatus to be removed, unless otherwise reasonably agreed.

(2) If the facilities and rights to be afforded by the undertaker in respect of any alternative apparatus in the undertaker’s land are less favourable on the whole to the statutory undertaker than the facilities and rights enjoyed by it in respect of the apparatus to be removed, then the undertaker and the statutory undertaker shall agree appropriate compensation for the extent to which the new facilities and rights render the statutory undertaker less able to effectively carry out its undertaking or require it to do so at greater cost. If the amount of compensation cannot be agreed, then either the undertaker or the statutory undertaker may refer the matter to arbitration as per article 52 (arbitration) of this Order.

(2) In relation to works which will or may be situated on, over, under or within 15 metres measured in any direction of any apparatus, or (wherever situated) impose any load directly upon any apparatus or involve embankment works within 15 metres of any apparatus, the plan to be submitted to the statutory undertaker under sub-paragraph (1) shall be detailed including a method statement and describing—

(a)the exact position of the Works;

(b)the level at which these are proposed to be constructed or renewed;

(c)the manner of their construction or renewal including details of excavation, positioning of plant etc;

(d)the position of all apparatus; and

(e)by way of detailed drawings, every alteration proposed to be made close to (within 15 metres of) any apparatus.

(3) The undertaker shall not commence the construction or renewal of any works to which sub-paragraphs (1) or (2) apply until the statutory undertaker has given written approval of the plan so submitted.

(4) Any approval of the statutory undertaker required under sub-paragraph (3)—

(a)may be given subject to reasonable conditions for any purpose mentioned in sub-paragraph (5) or (7); and

(b)shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(5) In relation to works to which sub-paragraph (2) applies, the statutory undertaker may require such modifications to be made to the plans as may be reasonably necessary for the purpose of securing its system against interference or risk of damage or for the purpose of providing or securing proper and convenient means of access to any apparatus.

(6) Works executed under the Order to which this paragraph 104 applies shall be executed only in accordance with the relevant plan, notified under sub-paragraph (1) and approved (with conditions, if applicable) under sub-paragraph (4), as amended from time to time by agreement between the undertaker and the statutory undertaker. The statutory undertaker shall be entitled to watch and inspect the execution of those Works.

(7) Where the statutory undertaker requires any protective works or subsidence monitoring to be carried out either by itself or by the undertaker (whether of a temporary or permanent nature), the statutory undertaker shall give the undertaker notice of such requirement in its approval under sub-paragraph (3), and—

(a)such protective works shall be carried out to the statutory undertakers’ reasonable satisfaction prior to the carrying out of the relevant part of the Works;

(8) Nothing in this paragraph shall preclude the undertaker from submitting at any time or from time to time, but in no case less than 28 days before commencing the execution of the relevant Works, a new plan, instead of the plan previously submitted, and having done so the provisions of this paragraph shall apply to and in respect of the new plan.

(9) The undertaker shall not be required to comply with sub-paragraphs (1) or (2) where it needs to carry out emergency works as defined in the 1991 Act, but in that case it shall give to the statutory undertaker notice as soon as is reasonably practicable and a plan of those works shall comply with the other requirements in this paragraph insofar as is reasonably practicable in the circumstances, provided that it always complies with sub-paragraph (10).

(10) At all times when carrying out any works authorised under the Order that may or will affect the apparatus, the undertaker shall comply with the statutory undertaker’s policies for safe working in proximity to gas apparatus including the “Specification for safe working in the vicinity of Northern Gas Networks, Gas pipelines and associated installation requirements for third parties “NGN/SPSSW22” and the Health and Safety Executive guidance document “HS(G)47 Avoiding Danger from underground services”.

Expenses

105.—(1) Subject to the following provisions of this paragraph, the undertaker shall repay to the statutory undertaker as soon as reasonably practicable all charges, costs and expenses reasonably and properly incurred by the statutory undertaker in, or in connection with, the inspection, removal or diversion, relaying or replacing, alteration or protection of any apparatus or the construction of any new apparatus which may be reasonably required and necessary in consequence of the execution of the Works, including without limitation—

(a)any costs reasonably incurred or compensation properly paid in connection with the acquisition of rights or the exercise of statutory powers for such apparatus, including without limitation in the event that the statutory undertaker elects to use compulsory purchase powers to acquire any necessary rights under 102(4);

(b)in connection with the cost of the carrying out of any diversion work or the provision of any alternative apparatus;

(c)the cutting off of any apparatus from any other apparatus or the making safe of redundant apparatus;

(d)the approval of plans;

(e)the carrying out of protective works;

(f)the survey of any land, apparatus or works, the inspection and monitoring of works or the installation or removal of any temporary works reasonably necessary in consequence of the execution of any works carried out pursuant to this Schedule; and

(g)any statutory loss of supply payments under the ‘Guaranteed Standards of Service’ regime that the statutory undertaker may incur in consequence of the works, but in the event that such payments are likely to become payable, the statutory undertaker shall give the undertaker notice as soon as reasonably practicable of the payments and the likely amount.

(2) The statutory undertaker shall use its reasonable endeavours to mitigate in whole or in part, and in any event to minimise, any expenses capable of being claimed under sub-paragraph (1). If requested to do so by the undertaker, the statutory undertaker shall provide an explanation of how the claimed expenses have been minimised. The undertaker shall only be liable to pay expenses that have been reasonably incurred.

(3) There shall be deducted from any sum payable under sub-paragraph (1) the value of any apparatus removed under the provisions of this Schedule and which is not re-used as part of the alternative apparatus, that value being calculated after removal and not including the costs (if any) of disposing that apparatus.

(4) If in accordance with the provisions of this part of this Schedule—

(a)apparatus of greater capacity or of greater dimensions is placed in substitution for existing apparatus; or

(b)apparatus (whether existing apparatus or apparatus substituted for existing apparatus) is placed at a depth greater than the depth at which the existing apparatus was situated,

then, if this incurs greater expense than would have been incurred by a like-for-like (or as close as practicable to like-for like) replacement at the same depth, the undertaker shall not be liable for this additional expense.

(5) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (4)—

(a)an extension of apparatus to a length greater than the length of existing apparatus shall not be treated as a placing of apparatus of greater dimensions than those of the existing apparatus.

Enactments and agreements

106.  Nothing in this Schedule shall affect the provisions of any enactment or agreement regulating the relations between the undertaker and the statutory undertaker in respect of any apparatus laid or erected in land belonging to the undertaker.

Co-operation

107.  Where in consequence of the proposed construction of any of the Works the undertaker or the statutory undertaker requires the removal of apparatus in accordance with the provisions of these Protective Provisions, each party shall use all reasonable endeavours to co-ordinate the execution of such works in the interests of safety and the efficient and economic execution of such works, taking into account the absolute need to ensure the safe and efficient operation of the statutory undertaker’s undertaking and its apparatus and the safe and efficient operation of the undertaker’s apparatus.

Access

108.  If in consequence of the powers granted under the Order, the access to any apparatus is materially obstructed, the undertaker shall provide such alternative means of access to such apparatus as will enable the statutory undertaker to maintain or use the apparatus no less effectively than was possible before such obstruction.

Arbitration

109.  Any difference or dispute arising between the undertaker and the statutory undertaker under this Schedule shall, unless otherwise agreed in writing between the undertaker and that statutory undertaker, be determined by arbitration in accordance with the relevant article of the Order.

Works falling outside of development authorised by the Order

110.  Nothing in this schedule shall require the undertaker to carry out works, or require the undertaker to enable the statutory undertaker to carry out works, that are not authorised by the Order. The statutory undertaker shall not request any alteration, diversion, protective work or any other work which is not authorised to be carried out under the Order (but for the avoidance of doubt, it may elect to carry out such works itself under any other planning permission, permitted development rights or statutory powers (including those of compulsory acquisition) available to it).

Cathodic protection testing

111.  Where in the reasonable opinion of either party—

(a)the Authorised Development might interfere with the existing cathodic protection forming part of the apparatus; or

(b)the apparatus might interfere with the proposed or existing cathodic protection forming part of the Authorised Development,

the parties shall co-operate in undertaking the tests which they consider reasonably necessary for ascertaining the nature and extent of such interference and measures for providing or preserving cathodic protection.
