Compulsory acquisition of new rights, etc.

18.—(1) The undertaker may create and acquire compulsorily new rights over those parts of the Order land specified in column (1) of Schedule 5 (land in which only new rights, etc. may be acquired) as may be required for the purpose specified in relation to that land in column (2) of that Schedule or as may be required for facilitating the construction of, or are incidental to, the authorised development.

(2) The undertaker may also impose the restrictive obligations specified in column (3) of Schedule 6 (land over which restrictive obligations and rights of support are required) over the Order land specified in column (2) of that Schedule.

(3) As from the date on which a compulsory acquisition notice is served or the date on which any new right is vested in the undertaker, whichever is the later, the land over which any new rights are acquired is discharged from all rights, easements, liberties, privileges, advantages, restrictions, covenants, trusts and incidents to which it was previously subject so far as their continuance would be inconsistent with the exercise of that new right.

(4) Any person who suffers loss as a result of 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.

(5) Schedule 7 (modification of compensation and compulsory purchase enactments for creation of new rights, etc.) has effect for the purpose of modifying the enactments relating to compensation and the provisions of the 1965 Act in their application in relation to the compulsory acquisition under this article of a right over land by the creation of a new right or the imposition of a restrictive obligation.
