SCHEDULES

FIRST SCHEDULE Modification of provisions of principal Act as to development value
Sections 1, 6.

Modification in certain cases where land acquired by public authority
1 (1) The three next following paragraphs shall have effect where an interest in land was compulsorily acquired by a public authority possessing compulsory purchase powers in pursuance of a notice to treat served on or after the date of the passing of the principal Act and before the first day of July, nineteen hundred and forty-eight, and the compensation paid did not exceed the amount provided for by section fifty-two of the principal Act (which provided for compensation on the basis of the existing use value of the land).
(2) The said paragraphs shall also have effect where an interest in land was purchased by such an authority in pursuance of a contract made on or after the date of the passing of the principal Act and before the said first day of July, at a price which did not exceed the amount of the compensation which would have been payable in accordance with the said section fifty-two if the transaction had been a compulsory acquisition.
(3) In those paragraphs the expression " the relevant land " means the land an interest in which was acquired or purchased as mentioned in either of the preceding sub-paragraphs, and the expression "the relevant interest" means the interest which was so acquired or purchased.
2 Where any works for the erection or alteration of a building had been begun but not completed on the relevant land before the notice to treat was served or the contract made, as the case may be, subsection (3) of section seventy-five of the principal Act (which provides that the development value of land containing unfinished buildings shall be calculated as if the buildings were completed) shall not apply for the purpose of determining the development value of the relevant interest.
3 Where after the notice to treat was served or the contract made, as the case may be, the Secretary of State issued in respect of the relevant land or any part thereof a certificate under section seventy-seven of the principal Act (which, as respects land certified as ripe for development before the said first day of July, provides that the prospective value of the development for which the land was ripe shall be disregarded), the development value of the relevant interest shall be determined as if the certificate had not been issued.
4 Where the acquisition or purchase was not completed until after the said first day of July, but before that day the acquiring authority had carried out on the relevant land works for the erection or alteration of a building, or had on the relevant land constructed roads or provided sewers or other services, the provisions of subsection (2) of section eighty-seven of the principal Act (which makes special provision as to compulsory acquisitions initiated and completed between the passing of that Act and the first day of July, nineteen hundred and forty-eight), and those provisions as applied by subsection (4) of that section (which relates to acquisitions by agreement by public authorities), shall apply as if they extended to acquisitions completed after the said first day of July in pursuance of a notice to treat served, or a contract made, after the passing of the principal Act but before that day:
Provided that where the acquiring authority had carried out on the relevant land any such operations as aforesaid before the service of the notice to treat, or the making of the contract, as the case may be, those provisions shall so apply as if, in paragraph (a) of the said subsection (2), the reference to the state of the land as it was immediately before the date of the notice to treat were a reference to the state of the land immediately before those operations were begun.
5 Subsection (3) of section eighty-seven of the principal Act (which requires development values to be adjusted where an interest in land is compulsorily acquired), and that subsection as applied by subsection (4) of that section, shall not apply to any acquisition of an interest in land in pursuance of a notice to treat served, or a contract made, after the commencement of this Act.

Requisitioned land
6 Where land was requisitioned land on the first day of July, nineteen hundred and forty-eight, and during the period of requisition a value payment under the War Damage Act, 1943, became payable in respect of that land, section eighty-five of the principal Act (which provides for calculating the development value of an interest in requisitioned land by reference to the state of the land immediately before the beginning of the period of requisition) shall apply for determining the development value of any interest in that land, with the modification that regard shall be had, not to the actual state of the land immediately before the beginning of the period of requisition, but to what that state would have been at the beginning of that period if the war damage had occurred immediately before the beginning thereof.
7 Where in the case of any requisitioned land the period of requisition ended before the said first day of July but on or after the date of the coming into operation of section ten of the Requisitioned Land and War Works Act, 1948 (which provides for restricting compensation for damage to the land to an amount calculated by reference to the existing use value of the land at the time when it was requisitioned), the development value of any interest in that land shall be determined as if the land had continued to be requisitioned land on the said first day of July and section eighty-five of the principal Act had applied to it accordingly.

Compensation for abortive expenditure
8 Where the development value of an interest in land, determined apart from this paragraph, would be wholly or partly attributable to the carrying out of work which was subsequently rendered abortive—
(a) by an order made before the commencement of this Act whereby permission to develop land was revoked or modified, or
(b) by a planning decision made before the commencement of this Act whereby permission to complete buildings or works was refused, or was granted subject to conditions,
and compensation has become payable under subsection (1) of section twenty of the principal Act, or, as the case may be, under subsection (1) of section seventy-six of that Act, in respect of expenditure incurred before the first day of July, nineteen hundred and forty-eight, being expenditure so incurred wholly or partly in the carrying out of that work, then, in determining that development value, there shall be deducted an amount equal to so much of the compensation as was attributable to that work.

Other modifications
9 In determining the development value of an interest in land—
(a) no account shall be taken of any enforcement notice taking effect after the commencement of this Act by virtue of section seventy-two of the principal Act (which relates to development contravening planning control under previous enactments);
(b) account shall be taken of any enforcement notice taking effect by virtue of that section before the commencement of this Act, notwithstanding that the notice took effect after that development value would apart from this paragraph have been deemed to be finally determined.
10 Where, in determining the development value of an interest in land before the commencement of this Act, Rule (3) of the Rules set out in section two of the Acquisition of Land (Assessment of Compensation) Act, 1919, was disregarded, notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (1) of section fifty-nine of the principal Act (which requires that Rule, together with other rules, to be applied in determining development values), the said subsection (1) shall apply, and be deemed always to have applied, in relation to the determination of the development value of that interest, as if the reference in that subsection to the said Rule (3) had been omitted.
11 Where a claim was made for a payment under the scheme referred to in subsection (2) of section one of this Act, but payment in respect of the interest to which the claim related would have been excluded by section eighty-two of the principal Act by virtue of a direction given under subsection (5) of the said section eighty-two, the Secretary of State, on application made to him at any time within six months after the commencement of this Act, may direct that the provisions of the principal Act, and of this Act, shall have effect in relation to that claim as if the direction under subsection (5) of the said section eighty-two had not been given.
