(a)of making use of the well, borehole or shaft in connection with the development or use of the underground gas storage (and to the exclusion of its use by any other person), or
(b)where the well, borehole or shaft extends below the depth prescribed by the storage authorisation order, of stopping it up or preventing its use by any other person.
(2)If the well, borehole or shaft in any such land extends below the depth prescribed by the storage authorisation order, the [F1public gas supplier]may be authorised under [F2Schedule 3 to the principal Act]to purchase compulsorily such rights as appear to the Minister expedient to enable the [F1public gas supplier]to ensure that the well, borehole or shaft is stopped up, or is prevented from being used by any other person; [F3and Part I of Schedule 4 to this Act shall apply in relation to the compulsory purchase].
(3)For the purpose of enabling a [F1public gas supplier]to obtain access to land which is in a storage area or protective area and—

(ii)where the right of way includes a right to pass over the land with vehicles, a right to transport materials, plant and apparatus in vehicles.
(4)Where in consequence of the exercise by a [F1public gas supplier]of any right acquired under subsection (3) of this section any person suffers loss by reason of damage to, or disturbance in the enjoyment of, any land or chattels, he shall be entitled to compensation in respect of that loss from the [F1public gas supplier].

(6)A right acquired under subsection (2) or subsection (3) of this section shall be deemed to be a charge affecting land falling within paragraph (iii) of class D in [F6section 2(5) of the M1Land Charges Act 1972], and that Act and the M2Land Registration Act 1925 shall have effect accordingly.
(7)A right acquired as aforesaid in relation to a well, borehole or shaft situated in Scotland shall be recorded as soon as may be by the person acquiring the right in the General Register of Sasines.
(8)[F7Section 10(3) of the Coal Industry Act 1994] (restriction on alienation of coal and coalmines) shall not prevent the acquisition by a [F1public gas supplier], whether by agreement or by compulsory purchase, for purposes connected with an underground gas storage of land which is the site of a well, borehole or shaft which forms part of a [F8coal mine (as defined in section 65 of the said Act of 1994)], which is disused, or of any rights as respects such a well, borehole or shaft.
(9)References in this section to a storage area or protective area, or the depth prescribed by a storage authorisation order, shall, in relation to a compulsory purchase order which is made under this section after proposals for a storage authorisation order have been submitted to the Minister under paragraph 3 of Schedule 2 to this Act, but before the storage authorisation order takes effect, be taken as references to those areas, or the depth so prescribed, as set out in the proposals, or in an application under paragraph 6 of the said Schedule 2, and any variation of the areas or depth in the storage authorisation order, as compared with those proposals or the application, shall not invalidate the compulsory purchase order.
(10)The provisions of this section are without prejudice to the generality of the provisions of [F2Schedule 3 to the principal Act].
(11)In the application of this section to Scotland, in subsection (4) “chattels” means corporeal moveables.
