Apparatus of SGN in stopped up streets

19.—(1) Without prejudice to the generality of any other protection afforded to SGN elsewhere in the Order, where any street is stopped up under article 13 (street to be stopped up), if SGN has any apparatus in the street or accessed via that street SGN will be entitled to the same rights in respect of such apparatus and access as it enjoyed immediately before the stopping up and the undertaker will grant to SGN, or will procure the granting to SGN of, legal easements reasonably satisfactory to SGN in respect of such apparatus and access to it prior to any stopping up of any such street or highway but nothing in this paragraph affects any right of the undertaker or of SGN to require the removal of that apparatus under paragraph 21.

(2) The Protective Provisions in this Part of this Schedule apply and take precedence over article 16 of, and Schedule 5 to, the Order which shall not apply to SGN.
