Section 2.

SCHEDULE 1 E+W+S Supplementary Provisions Relating to Right to Withdraw Support

1 (1) Subject to paragraph 3 below, the provisions of this paragraph shall apply in any case where the construction of any buildings or works is to be begun on land to which a notice under section 2 of this Act relates, other than a notice which is deemed to have been published by virtue of subsection (5) of that section.

(2) Before the construction of the buildings or works is begun, the person at whose expense they are to be constructed (in this paragraph referred to as “the building owner”) shall notify the [F1 Corporation] of the proposal to construct them, and shall, if so requested by the [F1 Corporation] within fourteen days from the receipt by them of the notice, produce for the inspection of a person duly authorised by them in that behalf plans and specifications of the buildings or works showing their design and the proposed materials for and method of construction of their foundations, and shall, if so requested within that period or within seven days after the plans and specifications have been produced in accordance with the preceding provisions of this sub-paragraph, furnish the [F1 Corporation] with copies of any such plans or specifications.

(3) At any time within twenty-eight days from the time when any request made by the [F1 Corporation] with respect to the production or furnishing of copies of the plans and specifications has been complied with, or within such further period as the building owner may allow, the [F1 Corporation] may make such proposals as to the materials for and the method of construction of the foundations as appear to them to be desirable for minimising damage in the event of subsidence and, if they do so, and the foundations are constructed otherwise than in accordance with the [F1 Corporation’s] proposals, the obligation to pay compensation or to make good under section 2(4) of this Act shall be limited so as not to extend to any damage that would have been avoided if they had been so constructed.

(4) The [F1 Corporation] shall have the right to have the foundations inspected by a person duly authorised by them in that behalf from time to time during their construction as that person may reasonably require, and if it is alleged by the [F1 Corporation] that the foundations are being constructed otherwise than in accordance with any plans or specifications produced or furnished to them, or otherwise than in accordance with any such plans or specifications as modified in accordance with proposals made by the [F1 Corporation] (as the case may be), the [F1 Corporation] shall notify the building owner of the matter alleged to constitute a departure therefrom, and any question arising in relation to any such allegation shall be determined by arbitration.

(5) The [F1 Corporation] shall pay all costs reasonably incurred by the building owner in the production or furnishing of copies of plans and specifications pursuant to a request made by the [F1 Corporation] under this paragraph, and the amount of any addition to the expense incurred by him in constructing the buildings or works which is attributable to giving effect to the [F1 Corporation’s] proposals or to any postponement or interruption of the construction consequent upon an allegation on the part of the [F1 Corporation] of a departure from plans and specifications which is determined not to have been well founded, and any question as to the subsistence of a liability of the [F1 Corporation] by virtue of this provision, or as to the amount payable by them in respect of any such liability shall be determined by the Lands Tribunal or, if the land concerned is in Scotland, the Lands Tribunal for Scotland.

(6) If the building owner fails to give notice to the [F1 Corporation] in accordance with this paragraph of the proposal to construct the building or works or fails to comply with a request made by the [F1 Corporation] thereunder, the obligation to pay compensation or to make good under section 2(4) of this Act shall be limited to damage which could not have been avoided by reasonable and proper precautions taken in the design and construction of the foundations to minimise damage in the event of subsidence.

5 (1) A claimant who—

(a) has served a retained interest notice relating to any land (in this paragraph referred to as “the relevant land”); and

(b) is aggrieved by the service on him of a rejection notice relating to his retained interest notice, other than a rejection notice served pursuant to an order under this paragraph,

may, within the period of 3 months beginning on the date of service of the rejection notice make an application to the county court for an order directing the [F9 Corporation] to withdraw the rejection notice and to serve an acceptance notice in respect of the retained interest which he claims.

(2) On an application under this paragraph, the court may direct that, in addition to the applicant and the [F9 Corporation], any other person who has given a retained interest notice relating to the whole or part of any of the relevant land shall be made a party to the application unless—

(a) the [F9 Corporation] have already served a rejection notice in respect of that person’s retained interest notice; and

(b) the time within which he might have made an application under this paragraph in respect of that rejection notice has expired without such an application having been made.

(3) On an application under this paragraph the court shall determine whether—

(b) any other party to the application who contests the applicant’s claim, or

(c) any other person (whether a party to the application or not) on whom the [F9 Corporation] have served an acceptance notice relating to the whole or any part of the relevant land,

was at the time he gave his retained interest notice entitled to a retained interest in the whole or any part of the relevant land and shall order the [F9 Corporation] (so far as they have not already done so) to serve an acceptance notice on that person or, if more than one of them were so entitled to a retained interest in the same piece of land, on that one of them whose retained interest notice was given first.

(4) An order under sub-paragraph (3) above may contain such provisions as the court considers appropriate to secure—

(a) that a rejection notice is or has been served on every party to the application (other than the [F9 Corporation]) on whom an acceptance notice is not ordered to be or has not been served; and

(b) that, where it appears to the court that an acceptance notice has been served which should not have been served, that notice is cancelled and that the [F9 Corporation] bring the cancellation to the notice of the person who, if the notice had not been cancelled, would for the time being have been entitled to receive compensation under section 3(4) of this Act in respect of the interest to which the acceptance notice related.

(5) If, in accordance with sub-paragraph (4) above, the court orders the cancellation of an acceptance notice, it shall be conclusively presumed for the purposes of section 3 of this Act and of the provisions of this Schedule other than this paragraph—

(a) that the person on whom the acceptance notice was served did not have a retained interest in the relevant land at the time he served his retained interest notice; and

(b) that the [F9 Corporation] served a rejection notice in respect of that retained interest notice.

(6) Nothing in paragraph 3 above shall affect the power of the court on an application under this paragraph (or in any subsequent proceedings) to make such order as to costs as it thinks fit; and any such order may make such modifications, if any, of the [F9 Corporation’s] obligation under paragraph 3 above as appear to the court to be just in the light of the other provisions as to costs contained in the order.

6 The person having the right to receive compensation under section 3(4) of this Act in respect of a retained interest to which an acceptance notice relates shall be the person on whom that notice was served, notwithstanding that he may not own the retained interest at the time when the compensation becomes payable and, accordingly, that right shall devolve on his death and may be assigned in like manner as the right of a creditor under an unsecured debt.

7 Notwithstanding anything in paragraph 6 above if, at the time at which compensation becomes payable in respect of a retained interest, the [F10 Corporation] pay compensation in good faith to the person who produces the acceptance notice relating to that interest, the surrender of that notice to the [F10 Corporation] by way of receipt for the compensation shall constitute an adequate discharge to the [F10 Corporation] of their liability to pay that compensation, without any further proof that the person producing the acceptance notice is entitled in accordance with paragraph 6 above to receive the compensation.
