11.—(1) This article applies instead of section 8(1) of the 1965 Act (as applied by article 6 (application of Part 1 of the 1965 Act)) in any case where—
(a)a notice to treat is served on a person (“the owner”) under the 1965 Act (as so applied) in respect of land forming only part of a house, building or manufactory or of land consisting of a house with a park or garden (“the land subject to the notice to treat”); and
(b)a copy of this article is served on the owner with the notice to treat.
(2) In such a case, the owner may, within the period of 21 days beginning with the day on which the notice was served, serve on Network Rail a counter-notice objecting to the sale of the land subject to the notice to treat which states that the owner is willing and able to sell the whole (“the land subject to the counter-notice”).
(3) If no such counter-notice is served within that period, the owner must sell the land subject to the notice to treat.
(4) If such a counter-notice is served within that period, the question whether the owner must sell only the land subject to the notice to treat is, unless Network Rail agrees to take the land subject to the counter-notice, to be referred to the tribunal.
(5) If on such a reference the tribunal determine that the land subject to the notice to treat can be taken—
(a)without material detriment to the remainder of land subject to the counter-notice; or
(b)in the case of part of land consisting of a house with a park or garden, without material detriment to the remainder of the land subject to the counter-notice and without seriously affecting the amenity and convenience of the house,
the owner must sell the land subject to the notice to treat.
(6) If on such a reference the tribunal determine that only part of the land subject to the notice to treat can be taken—
(a)without material detriment to the remainder of the land subject to the counter-notice; or
(b)in the case of part of the land consisting of a house with a park or garden, without material detriment to the remainder of the land subject to the counter-notice and without seriously affecting the amenity and convenience of the house,
the notice to treat is deemed to be a notice to treat for that part.
(7) If on such a reference the tribunal determine that—
(a)the land subject to the notice to treat cannot be taken without material detriment to the remainder of the land subject to the counter-notice; but
(b)the material detriment is confined to a part of the land subject to the counter-notice,
the notice to treat is deemed to be a notice to treat for the land to which the material detriment is confined in addition to the land already subject to the notice, whether or not the additional land is land which Network Rail is authorised to acquire compulsorily under this Order.
(8) If Network Rail agrees to take the land subject to the counter-notice or if the tribunal determine that—
(a)none of the land subject to the notice to treat can be taken without material detriment to the remainder of the land subject to the counter-notice or, as the case may be, without material detriment to the remainder of the land subject to the counter-notice and without seriously affecting the amenity and convenience of the house; and
(b)the material detriment is not confined to a part of the land subject to the counter-notice,
the notice to treat is deemed to be a notice to treat for the land subject to the counter-notice, whether or not the whole of that land is land which Network Rail is authorised to acquire compulsorily under this Order.
(9) In any case where by virtue of a determination by the tribunal under this article a notice to treat is deemed to be a notice to treat for less land or more land than that specified in the notice, Network Rail may, within the period of 6 weeks beginning with the day on which the determination is made, withdraw the notice to treat; and, if it does so, must pay the owner compensation for any loss or expense occasioned to the owner by the giving and withdrawal of the notice, to be determined in case of dispute by the tribunal.
(10) Where the owner is required under this article to sell only part of a house, building or manufactory or of land consisting of a house with a park or garden, Network Rail must pay the owner compensation for any loss sustained by the owner due to the severance of that part in addition to the value of the interest acquired.
12.—(1) Subject to paragraph (5), all private rights of way over land subject to compulsory acquisition under this Order and any other private rights over that land which are inconsistent with the purposes of the authorised works are extinguished—
(a)as from the date of acquisition of the land by Network Rail, whether compulsorily or by agreement; or
(b)on the date of entry on the land by Network Rail under section 11(1) of the 1965 Act,
whichever is the sooner.
(2) Subject to paragraph (5), all private rights of way over land of which Network Rail takes temporary possession under this Order and any other private rights over that land which are inconsistent with the purposes of the authorised works are suspended and unenforceable for as long as Network Rail remains in lawful possession of the land.
(3) Any person who suffers loss by the extinguishment or suspension of any private right under this article is entitled to compensation to be determined, in case of dispute, under Part 1 of the 1961 Act.
(4) This article does not apply in relation to any right of way to which section 271 or 272 of the 1990 Act (extinguishment of rights of statutory undertakers, etc.) or paragraph 2 of the Schedule (provisions relating to statutory undertakers, etc.) applies.
(5) Paragraphs (1) and (2) have effect subject to—
(a)any notice given by Network Rail before the completion of the acquisition of the land, Network Rail’s entry onto it or Network Rail’s taking temporary possession of it that either or both of those paragraphs do not apply to any right specified in the notice; and
(b)any agreement which makes reference to this article made (whether before or after any of the events mentioned in sub-paragraph (a) and before or after the coming into force of this Order) between Network Rail and the person in or to whom the right in question is vested or belongs.
(6) If any such agreement as is mentioned in sub-paragraph (5)(b) is expressed to have effect also for the benefit of those deriving title from or under the person in or to whom the right in question is vested or belongs, it is effective in respect of the persons so deriving title, whether the title was derived before or after the making of the agreement.
13.—(1) After the end of the period of 5 years beginning with the day on which this Order comes into force—
(a)no notice to treat is to be served under Part 1 of the 1965 Act as applied to the acquisition of land by article 6 (application of Part 1 of the 1965 Act); and
(b)no declaration is to be executed under section 4 of the Compulsory Purchase (Vesting Declarations) Act 1981(1) as applied by article 7 (application of the Compulsory Purchase (Vesting Declarations) Act 1981).
(2) The powers conferred by article 8 (temporary use of land for construction of works) cease at the end of the period referred to in paragraph (1), except that nothing in this paragraph prevents Network Rail from remaining in possession of land after the end of that period, if the land was entered and possession of it was taken before the end of that period.
