(d)where the agreement relates to property, rights or liabilities which under the principal sections fall to be apportioned or divided or distributed between two or more Boards, as if the agreement constituted two or more separate agreements separately enforceable by and against each of the respective Boards as regards the part of the property, rights and liabilities vesting in that Board and not as regards the other part,

and paragraph (d) of this sub-paragraph shall apply in particular to the covenants, stipulations and conditions of any lease by or to the Commission.

(2)Save as otherwise provided by any provision in this Act (whether expressly or by necessary implication), the foregoing sub-paragraph (except paragraph (a)) shall apply in relation to any statutory provision, any provision of any agreement to which the Commission were not a party, and any provision of any other document not being an agreement, as it applies in relation to an agreement to which the Commission were a party, and, in relation to any such statutory or other provision as aforesaid, references in paragraphs (b) and (c) of that sub-paragraph to the Commission and to any officers or servants of the Commission include references made by means of a general reference to a class of persons of which the Commission are one, without the Commission themselves being specifically referred to.

(a)so far as the relevant agreement, statutory provision or other document relates to property, rights or liabilities or functions transferred under or in pursuance of this Act to one of the Boards, that Board,

(c)in any other case, such Board as the Minister may direct,

and in this paragraph references to agreements to which the Commission were a party and to statutory provisions, include in particular references to agreements to which the Commission became a party by virtue of the M9Transport Act 1947, and statutory provisions which applied to the Commission by virtue of that Act.

(5)A conveyance or transfer whereby a Board purport to transfer to some person other than a Board or the Holding Company for consideration any land or any other property which belonged to the Commission, or which is an interest in property which belonged to the Commission, shall be as effective as if all the other Boards had been parties to the conveyance or transfer and had thereby conveyed or transferred all their interest in the property conveyed or transferred.

(6)If at any stage of any court proceedings which have been instituted before the vesting date or later, but not more than five years after the vesting date, and which are proceedings to which a Board and a person other than a Board are parties, it appears to the court that the issues in the proceedings depend on any demarcation of boundaries or division or apportionment under the principal sections or this Schedule which the Boards have not yet effected, or raise a question of construction on those provisions which would not arise if all the Boards constituted a single person, the court may if it thinks fit on the application of a party to the proceedings other than a Board hear and determine the proceedings on the footing that the Board or Boards who are parties to the proceedings represent and are answerable for all the Boards, and that the Boards constitute a single person, and any judgment or order given by the court shall bind all the Boards accordingly.

(7)It shall be the duty of each Board to keep any other of the Boards informed of any case where that other Board may be prejudiced by sub-paragraph (5) or sub-paragraph (6) of this paragraph, and if a Board claim that they have been so prejudiced and that some other Board ought to indemnify or make a payment to them on that account, and that the other Board have unreasonably failed to meet that claim, they may refer the matter to the Minister for determination by him.

Minister’s power to alter distribution of property and functionsU.K.

4(1)The Minister shall have power—U.K.

(a)for the purpose of removing any difficulties or uncertainties in the application of sections thirty-one and thirty-two of this Act, or of reconciling the operation of those sections, or

by order to direct that notwithstanding those sections any property, rights or liabilities of the Commission, and any functions of the Commission under any local enactments, shall be transferred to such Board or Boards as may be specified in the order.

(2)An order under this paragraph may adapt or modify any local enactment so far as appears to the Minister expedient for the purpose of regulating the manner in which functions of the Commission thereunder are distributed and may contain such other transitional and supplemental provisions as appear to the Minister expedient, including provisions which might be included in an agreement between the Boards under paragraph 1 of this Schedule and provisions having retrospective effect.

(3)An order under this paragraph shall by virtue of this Act have effect to vest any property, rights or liabilities transferred by the order without further assurance.

(4)An order under this paragraph shall not be made more than five years after the vesting date unless it is one which relates, and is expressed to relate, only to a local enactment which authorises the carrying out of works.

(6)In the application of sub-paragraph (3) of this paragraph to Scotland, the words “without further assurance” shall be omitted.

Special provisions relating to transferred heritage in ScotlandU.K.

5(1)This paragraph applies to any heritable property or right in Scotland which is transferred to any of the Boards by or under the principal sections or this Schedule; and in this paragraph “transferred heritage” means any property or right to which this paragraph applies, and “vesting provision”, in relation to any transferred heritage, includes such of the provisions of the principal sections or of this Schedule, and such of the directions given and orders made thereunder and the agreements made in pursuance thereof as effect the transfer.U.K.

(2)In relation to any transferred heritage the vesting provision shall have effect for the purposes of any enactment relating to the completion of title to land or heritable rights as if it were a general disposition or assignation of the transferred heritage granted by the Commission in favour of the Board in question on the vesting date or, if the vesting provision takes effect on a subsequent date, on that subsequent date.

(3)Where any transferred heritage is immediately before the vesting date, or becomes at any time thereafter, the subject of a lease granted by the Commission, or, as the case may be, the Board to whom the heritage is transferred, the lease shall not be challengeable (notwithstanding any rule of law to the contrary effect) on the ground that the Commission, or, as the case may be, the Board, were not at the time of the granting of the lease infeft in the transferred heritage.

(4)This paragraph shall apply to any heritable property or right in Scotland transferred to two or more of the Boards jointly or to the Holding Company as it applies to any such property or right transferred to a Board, and references therein to a Board shall be construed accordingly.

Transitory protection for Boards affected by works carried out by another BoardU.K.

6(1)This paragraph applies in relation to works which a Board are authorised to carry out by a local enactment passed or made before the vesting date, including works begun but not completed by the Commission.U.K.

(2)It shall be the duty of a Board who at any time begin or continue with works to which this paragraph applies to afford to any other Board such rights and safeguards in relation to the works and, where necessary, in relation to the carrying out of those works, as may be required in order to facilitate the proper discharge of their functions by that other Board; and it shall be the duty of any other Board to afford to the Board beginning or continuing with the works such rights and safeguards as may be required for the proper carrying out and operation of the works.

(3)A Board who claim that another Board should in pursuance of their duty under the last foregoing sub-paragraph afford to the claimant Board any rights or safeguards shall give particulars of their claim by notice in writing to the other Board, and if within three months the Boards fail to agree on the claim, the claim shall be referred to an arbitrator appointed by the Boards or, in default of appointment by them, appointed by the Minister.

(4)If it appears to a Board who are proposing to begin or continue with works to which this paragraph applies that another Board may wish to consider whether to make a claim under this paragraph regarding the works, they shall not without the consent of that other Board begin or continue with the works—

(a)until one month after they have served a notice on that other Board of their proposal with sufficient particulars of the works, and any necessary plans and specifications, and

(b)if within one month of the service of the notice the other Board make a claim under this paragraph regarding the works, until the two Boards have agreed on the claim or the claim has been referred to an arbitrator appointed under sub-paragraph (3) of this paragraph and been finally determined:

Provided that the Minister may authorise a Board without compliance with paragraph (b) of this sub-paragraph to continue works begun by the Commission.

(5)Any agreement concluded between any of the Boards under this paragraph, and any award of an arbitrator under this paragraph, may itself provide for the reference of any issue to arbitration.

(6)In this paragraph references to affording rights and safeguards to a Board include references to granting to the Board interests in and rights over land, and undertaking to give to the Board appropriate notices.
