Also asked to decide whether the Lands Tribunal had jurisdiction to determine the question of entitlement to compensation. Held: Where land was to be acquired under a compulsory purchase order, the acquiring authority had to give notice to treat to every person with an interest in the land, failing which a person with such an interest could apply to the Lands Tribunal under the Compulsory Purchase Act 1965 for determination of their entitlement compensation.
