§ Lords Amendment: No. 78, in page 41, line 4 after "acquired" insert "or taken".
§ Mr. Graham PageI beg to move, That this House doth agree with the Lords in the said amendment.
It may be convenient to take with this the following Lords Amendments:
No. 79, in page 41, line 9, after "acquired" insert "or taken".
No. 80, in line 11, after "63" insert "or 121".
No. 81, in line 12, after "7" insert "or 20".
No. 82, in line 22, after "61" insert "or 114".
§ Mr. Deputy SpeakerSo be it.
§ Mr. PageThe courts have held that in assessing compensation for injurious affection regard could be had only to the effect on the land retained by the claimant of the works carried out on the land taken from the claimant himself and not to the effect of the whole of the works.
This is a matter that we discussed in Committee, arising out of the case Edwards v. Minister of Transport. The difficulty was that the clause as it stood covered injurious affection compensation arising under sections which covered 1468 compensation for the acquisition of interests in land other than short tenancies. In the amendment we have covered cases of short tenancies and brought them within the benefit of the clause.
