Law Commission consultation on compulsory purchase

We invite consultees’ views as to whether they are aware of:

1. any circumstances in which the provisions of the Lands Clauses Consolidation Act 1845 are still relied on? (If so, please provide details of the circumstances and the specific provisions); or

2. any other reasons why the repeal of the 1845 Act might prove to be problematic?

We invite consultees to provide data and evidence-based views on the likely impacts (economic and social) of the provisional proposals in this consultation paper.

We invite consultees to tell us if they believe or have evidence or data to suggest that any of our provisional proposals could result in advantages or disadvantages to certain groups whether or not these groups are protected under the Equality Act 2010.
