SCHEDULE 2COMPULSORY ACQUISITION OF LAND BY INI

1.(1) Where INI proposes to acquire, otherwise than by agreement, any land required for the purposes referred to in Article 10(1), it may apply to the Department for an order (“a vesting order”) vesting that land in INI and the Department shall have power to make a vesting order.

(a)which is the property of any public body which has power under any statutory provision to acquire land compulsorily; or

(b)which is declared by or under any statutory provision to be inalienable,

shall not, where representations objecting to the proposal for making the order have been duly made by the owner of the land and have not been withdrawn, be exercised in relation to that land unless the proposal for making the order has been approved by a resolution of the Assembly.

(2) In this paragraph “public body” means a body established by or under any statutory provision.
