HC Deb 01 February 1991 vol 184 cc656-7W
Mr. Bellotti

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if he has any plans to review the Land Compensation Act 1973; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Yeo

The Planning and Compensation Bill, introduced in another place, contains a number of major proposals for change to land compensation legislation. These include in particular a substantial widening of eligibility for home loss payments under the 1973 Act and an increase in the level of such payments for owner-occupiers.
