Résumé

This Act makes provision for the compulsory acquisition of private land by the state. Part II sets out the procedures for compulsory acquisition of land: Whenever the Minister is satisfied that the need is likely to arise for the acquisition of some particular land under section 6, the Commissioner may cause notice thereof to be published in the Gazette, and shall deliver a copy of the notice to every person who appears to him to be interested in the land (sect. 5). Section 6 provides for notices of acquisition to be decided by the Minister who directs in writing the Commissioner to acquire the land compulsory under this Part. Where land is acquired compulsorily under this part, full compensation shall be paid promptly to all persons interested in the land. Where part only of the land comprised in documents of title has been acquired, the Commissioner shall, as soon as practicable, cause a final survey to be made of all the land acquired (sect. 17). Part III deals with the temporary possession of land by a public body. Again the Minister is appointed to direct the Commissioner to take possession of the land required under section 24. The Commissioner may at any time of his own accord, by application in the prescribed form, refer to the Court for its determination any matters listed in section 28. Section 29 provides for appeal to Court by interested persons. (36 sections completed by one Schedule: principles on which compensation is to be determined)
