HL Deb 13 May 1982 vol 430 c313

Viscount Long rose to move, That the draft order laid before the House on 26th January be approved.

The noble Viscount said: My Lords, the order consolidates the law relating to the assessment of compensation in respect of the compulsory acquisition of land. It was considered by the Joint Committee on Consolidation Bills on 24th March 1982 and the committee was satisfied that it is purely a consolidating measure. It therefore makes no changes of substance in the existing law, but brings it together in one order. My Lords, I beg to move.

Moved, That the draft order laid before the House on 26th January be approved.—(Viscount Long.)

On Question, Motion agreed to.
