Abstract

This Act amends the Land Compensation Act of 2002 so as to restore the priority given to certain claims in relation with infrastructural improvements (i.e. the acquisition of private lands for rights of way purposes and road construction). Compensation of such claims shall be carried out to the full by the Department of Public Lands and only then claims relating to wetlands and ponding basins will be accepted.
