(b)in a case within subsection (3)(b), the prohibition of such of the works prohibited by the stop notice as cease to be relevant works.
(3)For the purposes of this section, a stop notice ceases to have effect when—
(a)the scheduled monument enforcement notice is quashed,
(b)a requirement of the scheduled monument enforcement notice is waived or relaxed by virtue of section 9B(5) so that any works the execution of which are prohibited by the stop notice cease to be relevant works,
(c)the scheduled monument enforcement notice is withdrawn by [F3Historic Environment Scotland] otherwise than in consequence of the grant by [F4it] of scheduled monument consent for the works to which the notice relates, or

(4)The loss or damage in respect of which compensation is payable under this section in respect of a prohibition includes any sum payable in respect of a breach of contract caused by the taking of action necessary to comply with the prohibition.
