Series: Scottish Planning and Environmental Law ; (95) February 2003, 7-11(5)Publication details: 2003Subject(s): Summary: Examines proposals to reform compulsory purchase law as set out in two consultative reports by the Law Commission. Provides the background to these proposals, with reference to the work of the Compulsory Purchase Policy Review Advisory Group (CPPRAG). Expands on nine of the more detailed proposals in the Law Commission's reports. In relation to compulsory purchase procedure the proposals cover time-limits, abortive orders, interference with existing rights and notices of objection to severance. Under compensation, the proposals cover the statutory right to compensation, additional loss payment, establishing development potential, the effects of the scheme and compensation for disturbance. Although the proposals only concern England and Wales, the Scottish compulsory purchase system is similar and the Scottish Executive is likely to respond.| Item type | Current library | Call number | Copy number | Status | Barcode | |
