PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT ACT 2005 - SECT 192

192 .         Land etc. to be acquired under s. 191, valuing

        (1)         Despite Part 10 of the Land Administration Act 1997 , the value of any land or improvements on land which is compulsorily acquired by a responsible authority under section 191 is, for the purpose of assessing the amount of compensation to be paid for the land and improvements to be assessed —

            (a)         without regard to any increase or decrease in value attributed wholly or in part to any of the provisions contained in, or to the operation or effect of, the relevant planning scheme; and

            (b)         having regard to values current at the time of acquisition,

                but in assessing the amount of compensation regard is to be had to any amounts of compensation already paid, or payable, by the responsible authority in respect of the land under Division 2.

        (2)         Where compensation has been paid, or is payable, in respect of land under Division 2, then, subject to subsection (3), there is to be deducted from the compensation assessed under subsection (1) an amount that bears the same ratio to the compensation so assessed as the compensation paid or payable under that Division bears to the unaffected value of the land, as determined under this Part.

        (3)         In assessing the amount to be deducted from compensation under subsection (2), the person lawfully appointed to determine the amount of compensation is to have regard to —

            (a)         any improvements or demolitions lawfully made to or on the land, subsequently to the determination of the unaffected value of the land; and

            (b)         to the earlier termination of the tenure of the land, where the compensation might otherwise have been affected by an assurance given by the responsible authority, and which the responsible authority is by this paragraph authorised to give, that the tenure was to be of a greater period.
