Improving compensation

Improving compensation - 2002 - Farmers' Weekly 8 February 2002, 24(1) .

Government's consultation paper on compulsory purchase could benefit farmers and landowners who feel they lose out when their land or estate is acquired under a cpo. It examines ways of making the compensation process fairer, simpler and faster although it is not clear if valuations will take into account improvement in value of the land arising from a development scheme.
