HC Deb 26 October 1966 vol 734 c1229
Mr. Willey

I beg to move Amendment No. 39, in page 23, line 4, to leave out from 'section' to the end of line 14 and to insert: 'then, subject to the following provisions of this sect on and, where an order has been made by the county court or the sheriff under subsection (4) of that section, subject to the provisions of that order, the Commission'. Perhaps we could take Amendment No. 40 with this Amendment, which seeks to meet a point raised by hon. Members opposite in Standing Committee. There were differences. We have overcome them, and have put down this Amendment.

Amendment agreed to.

Further Amendments made: In page 23, line 16, at end insert: 'at any time before the end of the period of six months after the date applicable in accordance with the next following subsection. (2) That date is the date of the occurrence of whichever of the following events last occurs, that is to say—

  1. (a) the period specified in the notice in accordance with subsection (2)(b) of the last preceding section expires without a counter-notice having been served under subsection (3) of that section;
  2. (b) a counter-notice so served is withdrawn;
  3. (c) an application for leave under subsection (4) of that section is determined by the county court or the sheriff;
  4. (d) an appeal against the decision of the county court or the sheriff on such an application, and any further appeal against the decision on such an appeal, is determined or is abandoned or otherwise ceases to have effect or the time for bringing any such appeal or further appeal expires without its having been brought.'.

In line 25, at end insert— (3) Where the notice under the last preceding section stated that, in the circumstances specified in subsection (2)(b) of that section, the Commission proposed to execute a vesting declaration in respect only of part of the land in which the interest in question subsists, any vesting declaration made under this section in pursuance of that notice shall not extend beyond that part of the land, and the last preceding subsection shall have effect accordingly.
