PART 3 acquisition and possession of land Powers of acquisition Power to acquire land 20 1 DLRL may acquire compulsorily— a so much of the land shown on the deposited plans within the limits of deviation for the scheduled works shown on those plans and described in the book of reference as may be required for or in connection with the authorised works; and b so much of the land specified in columns (1) and (2) of Schedule 2 (being land shown on the deposited plans and described in the book of reference as lying within the limits of additional land to be acquired or used) as may be required for the purpose specified in relation to that land in column (3) of that Schedule, and may use any land so acquired for those purposes or for any other purposes ancillary to its railway undertaking. 2 DLRL shall not acquire under paragraph (1), nor appropriate under article 25, the lands delineated on the deposited plans and thereon numbered 619, 632 and 633 in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets but may acquire easements or other rights, including the imposition of restrictive covenants, over those lands in accordance with article 23(1). 3 This article is subject to article 25(2) (rights under or over streets). Application of Part 1 of the Compulsory Purchase Act 1965 21 1 Part 1 of the 1965 Act, in so far as not modified by or inconsistent with the provisions of this Order, shall apply to the acquisition of land under this Order— a as it applies to a compulsory purchase to which the 1981 Act applies; and b as if this Order were a compulsory purchase order under that Act. 2 Part 1 of the 1965 Act, as so applied, shall have effect as if section 4 (which provides a time limit for compulsory purchase of land) and paragraph 3(3) of Schedule 3 (which makes provision as to the giving of bonds) were omitted. Application of Compulsory Purchase (Vesting Declarations) Act 1981 22 1 The Compulsory Purchase (Vesting Declarations) Act 1981 shall apply as if this Order were a compulsory purchase order. 2 In its application by virtue of paragraph (1), the Compulsory Purchase (Vesting Declarations) Act 1981 shall have effect with the following modifications. 3 In section 3 (preliminary notices) for subsection (1) there shall be substituted— 1 Before making a declaration under section 4 below with respect to any land which is subject to a compulsory purchase order the acquiring authority shall include the particulars specified in subsection (3) below in a notice which is— a given to every person with a relevant interest in the land with respect to which the declaration is to be made (other than a mortgagee who is not in possession); and b published in a local newspaper circulating in the area in which the land is situated. . 4 In that section, in subsection (2), for “(1)(b)” there shall be substituted “(1)” and after “given” there shall be inserted “and published”. 5 In that section, subsections (5) and (6) shall be omitted and at the end there shall be substituted— 5 For the purposes of this section, a person has a relevant interest in land if— a he is for the time being entitled to dispose of the fee simple of the land, whether in possession or reversion; or b he holds, or is entitled to the rents and profits of, the land under a lease or agreement, the unexpired term of which exceeds one month. . 6 In section 5 (earliest date for execution of declaration)— a in subsection (1), after “publication” there shall be inserted “in a local newspaper circulating in the area in which the land is situated”; and b subsection (2) shall be omitted. 7 In section 7 (constructive notice to treat), in subsection (1)(a), the words “(as modified by section 4 of the Acquisition of Land Act 1981)” shall be omitted. 8 References to the 1965 Act shall be construed as references to that Act as applied to the acquisition of land under article 21 (Application of Part 1 of the Compulsory Purchase Act 1965). Power to acquire new rights 23 1 DLRL may acquire compulsorily such easements or other rights over any land referred to in paragraph (1)(a) or (b) of article 20 (power to acquire land), or impose restrictive covenants affecting any such land, as may be required for any purpose for which that land may be acquired under that provision, by creating them as well as by acquiring easements or other rights already in existence. 2 Schedule 6 shall have effect for the purpose of modifying the enactments relating to compensation and the provisions of the 1965 Act in their application in relation to the compulsory acquisition under this article of a right over land by the creation of a new right or the imposition of a restrictive covenant. 3 Subject to section 8 of the 1965 Act (as substituted by paragraph 5 of Schedule 6), where DLRL acquires a right or the benefit of a restrictive covenant over land under paragraph (1) it shall not be required to acquire a greater interest in that land. Power to acquire subsoil only 24 1 DLRL may acquire compulsorily so much of the subsoil of the land referred to in paragraph (1)(a) or (b) of article 20 (power to acquire land) as may be required for any purpose for which that land may be acquired under that provision instead of acquiring the whole of the land. 2 Where DLRL acquires any part of the subsoil of land under paragraph (1), DLRL shall not be required to acquire an interest in any other part of the land. 3 Paragraph (2) shall not prevent article 29 (acquisition of part of certain properties) from applying where DLRL acquires a cellar, vault, arch or other construction forming part of a house, building or manufactory. Rights under or over streets 25 1 DLRL may enter upon and appropriate so much of the surface, subsoil of, or airspace over, any street shown on the deposited plans and described in the book of reference as may be required for the purposes of the authorised works and may use the surface, subsoil and air-space for those purposes or any other purpose ancillary to its undertaking. 2 Subject to paragraph (4), the power under paragraph (1) may be exercised in relation to a street without DLRL being required to acquire any part of the street or any easement or right in the street and except in relation to a street which is subject to stopping up pursuant to article 9 (stopping up of streets), the powers of compulsory acquisition of land conferred by this Order shall not apply in relation to the street. 3 Subject to paragraph (5), any person who is an owner or occupier of land in respect of which the power of appropriation conferred by paragraph (1) is exercised without DLRL acquiring any part of that person’s interest in the land, and who suffers loss by the exercise of that power, shall be entitled to compensation to be determined, in case of dispute, under Part 1 of the 1961 Act. 4 Paragraph (2) shall not apply in relation to— a any subway or underground building; or b any cellar, vault, arch or other construction in, on or under a street which forms part of a building fronting on to the street. 5 Compensation shall not be payable under paragraph (3) to any person who is an undertaker to whom section 85 of the 1991 Act applies in respect of measures of which the allowable costs are to be borne in accordance with that section. Temporary possession of land Temporary use of land for construction of works 26 1 DLRL may, in connection with the carrying out of the authorised works— a enter upon and take temporary possession of— i the land specified in columns (1) and (2) of Schedule 7 for the purpose specified in relation to that land in column (3) of that Schedule in connection with the authorised works (or any of those works) so specified in column (4) of that Schedule; and ii any of the land within the Order limits in respect of which no notice of entry has been served under section 11 of the 1965 Act or no declaration has been made under section 4 of the Compulsory Purchase (Vesting Declarations) Act 1981; b remove any buildings and vegetation from the land referred to in sub-paragraph (a)(i) and (a)(ii); and c construct temporary works (including the provision of means of access) and buildings on the land referred to in sub-paragraph (a)(i) and (a)(ii). 2 Not less than 14 days before exercising the powers of paragraph (1), DLRL shall serve notice of the intended entry or use on the owners and occupiers of the land. 3 DLRL may not, without the agreement of the owners of the land, remain in possession of any land of which temporary possession has been taken under this article— a in the case of land specified in columns (1) and (2) of Schedule 7, after the end of the period of 2 years beginning with the date of completion of the work specified in relation to that land in column (4) of that Schedule; or b in the case of land within the Order limits, after the end of the period of 2 years beginning with the date of completion of the work for which temporary possession of the land was taken unless DLRL has, by the end of that period, served a notice of entry under section 11 of the 1965 Act or made a declaration under section 4 of the Compulsory Purchase (Vesting Declarations) Act 1981 in relation to that land. 4 Before giving up possession of land of which temporary possession has been taken under this article, DLRL shall remove all temporary works and restore the land to the reasonable satisfaction of the owners of the land; but DLRL shall not be required to replace a building removed under this article. 5 DLRL shall pay compensation to the owners and occupiers of land of which temporary possession is taken under this article for any loss or damage arising from the exercise in relation to the land of the powers conferred by this article. 6 Any dispute as to a person’s entitlement to compensation under paragraph (5), or as to the amount of the compensation, shall be determined under Part 1 of the 1961 Act. 7 Without prejudice to article 46 (no double recovery), nothing in this article shall affect any liability to pay compensation under section 10(2) of the 1965 Act or under any other enactment in respect of loss or damage arising from the execution of any works, other than loss or damage for which compensation is payable under paragraph (5). 8 Where DLRL takes possession of or uses any land under this article, it shall not be required to acquire the land or any interest in it. 9 In this article and article 27 (temporary use of land for maintenance of work) “building” includes structure or any other erection. 10 Section 13 of the 1965 Act shall apply to the temporary use of land authorised under this article to the same extent as it applies to the acquisition of land authorised under this Order by virtue of article 21(1) (application of Part 1 of the Compulsory Purchase Act 1965). Temporary use of land for maintenance of works 27 1 Subject to paragraph (2), at any time during the maintenance period relating to any of the scheduled works, DLRL may— a enter upon and take temporary possession of any land within the Order limits and lying within 20 metres from any authorised work, if such possession is reasonably required for the purpose of, or in connection with, maintaining that work or any ancillary works connected with it or securing the safe operation of any such work; and b construct such temporary works (including the provision of means of access) and buildings on the land as may be reasonably necessary for that purpose. 2 Paragraph (1) shall not authorise DLRL to take temporary possession of— a any house or garden belonging to a house; or b any building (other than a house) if it is for the time being occupied. 3 Not less than 28 days before entering upon and taking temporary possession of land under this article DLRL shall serve notice of the intended entry on the owners and occupiers of the land. 4 DLRL may only remain in possession of land under this article for so long as may be reasonably necessary to carry out the maintenance works for which possession of the land was taken. 5 Before giving up possession of land of which temporary possession has been taken under this article, DLRL shall remove all temporary works and restore the land to the reasonable satisfaction of the owners of the land. 6 DLRL shall pay compensation to the owners and occupiers of land of which temporary possession is taken under this article for any loss or damage arising from the exercise in relation to the land of the powers conferred by this article. 7 Any dispute as to a person’s entitlement to compensation under paragraph (6), or as to the amount of the compensation, shall be determined under Part 1 of the 1961 Act. 8 Without prejudice to article 46 (no double recovery), nothing in this article shall affect any liability to pay compensation under section 10(2) of the 1965 Act or under any other enactment in respect of loss or damage arising from the execution of any works, other than loss or damage for which compensation is payable under paragraph (6). 9 Where DLRL takes possession of land under this article, it shall not be required to acquire the land or any interest in it. 10 Section 13 of the 1965 Act shall apply to the temporary use of land authorised under this article to the same extent as it applies to the acquisition of land authorised under this Order by virtue of article 21(1) (application of Part 1 of the Compulsory Purchase Act 1965). 11 In this article— a “the maintenance period”, in relation to a scheduled work, means the period of 5 years beginning with the date on which the work is opened for public use; and b any reference to land within a specified distance of a work includes, in the case of a work under the surface of the ground, a reference to land within the specified distance of the point on the surface below which the work is situated. Compensation Disregard of certain interests and improvements 28 1 In assessing the compensation (if any) payable to any person on the acquisition from him of any land under this Order, the tribunal shall not take into account— a any interest in land; or b any enhancement of the value of any interest in land by reason of any building erected, works executed or improvement or alteration made on relevant land, if the tribunal is satisfied that the creation of the interest, the erection of the building, the execution of the works or the making of the improvement or alteration was not reasonably necessary and was undertaken with a view to obtaining compensation or increased compensation. 2 In paragraph (1), “relevant land” means the land acquired from the person concerned or any other land with which he is, or was at the time when the building was erected, the works executed or the improvement or alteration made, directly or indirectly concerned. Supplementary Acquisition of part of certain properties 29 1 This article shall apply instead of section 8(1) of the 1965 Act (as applied by article 21 (application of Part 1 of the Compulsory Purchase Act 1965)) in any case where— a a notice to treat is served on a person (“the owner”) under the 1965 Act (as so applied) in respect of land forming only part of a house, building or factory or of land consisting of a house with a park or garden (“the land subject to the notice to treat”); and b a copy of this article is served on the owner with the notice to treat. 2 In such a case, the owner may, within the period of 21 days beginning with the day on which the notice was served, serve on DLRL a counter-notice objecting to the sale of the land subject to the notice to treat and stating that he is willing and able to sell the whole (“the land subject to the counter-notice”). 3 If no such counter-notice is served within that period, the owner shall be required to sell the land subject to the notice to treat. 4 If such a counter-notice is served within that period, the question whether the owner shall be required to sell only the land subject to the notice to treat shall, unless DLRL agrees to take the land subject to the counter-notice, be referred to the tribunal. 5 If on such a reference the tribunal determine that the land subject to the notice to treat can be taken— a without material detriment to the remainder of the land subject to the counter-notice; or b in the case of part of land consisting of a house with a park or garden, without material detriment to the remainder of the land subject to the counter-notice and without seriously affecting the amenity and convenience of the house, the owner shall be required to sell the land subject to the notice to treat. 6 If on such a reference the tribunal determine that only part of the land subject to the notice to treat can be taken— a without material detriment to the remainder of the land subject to the counter-notice; or b in the case of part of land consisting of a house with a park or garden, without material detriment to the remainder of the land subject to the counter-notice and without seriously affecting the amenity and convenience of the house, the notice to treat shall be deemed to be a notice to treat for that part. 7 If on such a reference the tribunal determine that— a the land subject to the notice to treat cannot be taken without material detriment to the remainder of the land subject to the counter-notice; but b the material detriment is confined to a part of the land subject to the counter-notice, the notice to treat shall be deemed to be a notice to treat for the land to which the material detriment is confined in addition to the land already subject to the notice, whether or not the additional land is land which DLRL is authorised to acquire compulsorily under this Order. 8 If DLRL agrees to take the land subject to the counter-notice, or if the tribunal determine that— a none of the land subject to the notice to treat can be taken without material detriment to the remainder of the land subject to the counter-notice or, as the case may be, without material detriment to the remainder of the land subject to the counter-notice and without seriously affecting the amenity and convenience of the house; and b the material detriment is not confined to a part of the land subject to the counter-notice, the notice to treat shall be deemed to be a notice to treat for the land subject to the counter-notice whether or not the whole of that land is land which DLRL is authorised to acquire compulsorily under this Order. 9 In any case where by virtue of a determination by the tribunal under this article a notice to treat is deemed to be a notice to treat for less land or more land than that specified in the notice, DLRL may, within the period of 6 weeks beginning with the day on which the determination is made, withdraw the notice to treat; and, if it does so, shall pay to the owner compensation for any loss or expense occasioned to him by the giving and withdrawal of the notice, to be determined in case of dispute by the tribunal. 10 Where the owner is required under this article to sell only part of a house, building or factory or of land consisting of a house with a park or garden, DLRL shall pay him compensation for any loss sustained by him due to the severance of that part in addition to the value of the interest acquired. Extinction or suspension of private rights of way 30 1 Subject to the provisions of this article, all private rights of way over land held or used by DLRL for the purposes of the authorised works or subject to compulsory acquisition under this Order shall be extinguished— a as from the use by DLRL of the land for the purposes of the authorised works; b as from the acquisition of the land by DLRL, whether compulsorily or by agreement; or c on the entry on the land by DLRL under section 11(1) of the 1965 Act, whichever is sooner. 2 Subject to the provisions of this article, all private rights of way over land owned by DLRL which is within the Order limits and is required for the purposes of this Order, shall be extinguished on the appropriation of the land for any of those purposes by DLRL. 3 Subject to the provisions of this article, all private rights of way over land of which DLRL takes temporary possession under this Order shall be suspended and unenforceable for as long as DLRL remains in lawful possession of the land. 4 Any person who suffers loss by the extinguishment or suspension of any private right of way under this article shall be entitled to compensation to be determined, in case of dispute, under Part 1 of the 1961 Act. 5 This article does not apply in relation to any right of way to which section 271 or 272 of the 1990 Act (extinguishment of rights of statutory undertakers, etc.) or paragraph 2 of Schedule 8 to this Order applies or would apply but for paragraph 2 of Schedule 12 to this Order. 6 Paragraphs (1), (2) and (3) shall have effect subject to— a any notice given by DLRL before the completion of the acquisition of the land, DLRL’s appropriation of it, DLRL’s entry onto it or DLRL’s taking temporary possession of it, as the case may be, that any or all of those paragraphs shall not apply to any right of way specified in the notice; and b any agreement made (whether before or after any of the events mentioned in paragraph (6)(a) and before or after the coming into force of this Order) between DLRL and the person in or to whom the right of way in question is vested or belongs. 7 If any such agreement as is referred to in paragraph (6)(b) which is made with a person in or to whom the right of way is vested or belongs is expressed to have effect also for the benefit of those deriving title from or under him, it shall be effective in respect of the persons so deriving title, whether the title was derived before or after the making of the agreement. 8 Paragraphs (1) and (2) shall not apply to any rights of way exercisable over the land referred to in article 20(2). Time limit for exercise of powers of acquisition 31 1 After the end of the period of 5 years beginning with the day on which this Order comes into force— a no notice to treat shall be served under Part 1 of the 1965 Act, as applied to the acquisition of land by article 21 (application of Part 1 of the Compulsory Purchase Act 1965); and b no declaration shall be executed under section 4 of the Compulsory Purchase (Vesting Declarations) Act 1981, as applied by article 22 (application of Compulsory Purchase (Vesting Declarations) Act 1981). 2 The power conferred by article 26 (temporary use of land for construction of works) to enter upon and take temporary possession of land shall cease at the end of the period mentioned in paragraph (1); but this paragraph shall not prevent DLRL from remaining in possession of land in accordance with article 26 (temporary use of land for construction of works) after the end of that period, if the land was entered and possession of it was taken before the end of that period. PART 4 operation of authorised works Power to lop trees overhanging authorised works 32 1 DLRL may fell or lop any tree or shrub near any part of the authorised works, or cut back its roots, if it reasonably believes it to be necessary to do so to prevent the tree or shrub— a from obstructing or interfering with the construction, maintenance or operation of the authorised works or any apparatus used for the purposes of the authorised works; or b from constituting a danger to passengers or other persons using the authorised works. 2 In exercising the powers in paragraph (1), DLRL shall do no unnecessary damage to any tree or shrub and shall pay compensation to any person for any loss or damage arising from the exercise of those powers. 3 Nothing in this article shall be taken to affect the application of any tree preservation order made under section 198 of the 1990 Act. 4 Any dispute as to a person’s entitlement to compensation under paragraph (2), or as to the amount of the compensation, shall be determined under Part 1 of the 1961 Act.

For protection of specified undertakers 37 The provisions of Schedule 12 shall have effect. For protection of British Waterways Board 38 The provisions of Schedule 13 shall have effect. PART 6 miscellaneous and general Traffic regulation 39 1 Subject to the provisions of this article DLRL may, for the purposes of the construction of the authorised works and with the consent of the traffic authority in whose area the relevant street is situated (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld)— a prohibit or restrict the parking, stopping, waiting or the loading or unloading of vehicles, at any time, in the relevant streets; b suspend temporarily the use of any parking place within a relevant street; and c revoke any traffic regulation order in so far as it is inconsistent with any prohibition or restriction made by DLRL under this paragraph. 2 DLRL shall consult the chief officer of police and the traffic authority in whose area the road is situated before complying with the provisions of paragraph (3). 3 DLRL shall not exercise the powers of this article unless it has— a given not less than 6 weeks' notice in writing of its intention to do so to the chief officer of police and the traffic authority in whose area the relevant streets are situated; and b not less than 7 days before exercising any power conferred by this article, given notice of the intention to exercise that power by publishing a notice in a local newspaper circulating in the area. 4 Any prohibition, restriction or other provision made by DLRL under sub-paragraph (1) (a), (b) or (c) shall have effect as if duly made by the traffic authority in whose area the street is situated as a traffic regulation order under the 1984 Act and the instrument by which it is effected may specify savings to which the prohibition, restriction or other provision is subject. 5 Any prohibition or restriction made by DLRL under paragraph (1) above shall not apply to any vehicle of a statutory utility for so long as it is engaged in connection with the laying, erection, alteration, repair or inspection of any apparatus of that utility. 6 In this article— “the relevant streets” means the carriageway of the streets specified in columns (1) and (2) of Schedule 14; and “statutory utility” means a statutory undertaker for the purposes of the 1980 Act or a public communications provider. Application of landlord and tenant law 40 1 This article applies to any agreement for leasing to any person the whole or any part of the authorised works and any agreement entered into by DLRL with any person for the construction, maintenance, use or operation of the authorised works, or any part of them, so far as any such agreement relates to the terms on which any land which is the subject of a lease granted by or under that agreement is to be provided for that person’s use. 2 No enactment or rule of law regulating the rights and obligations of landlords and tenants shall prejudice the operation of any agreement to which this article applies. 3 Accordingly, no such enactment or rule of law shall apply in relation to the rights and obligations of the parties to any lease granted by or under any such agreement so as to— a exclude or in any respect modify any of the rights and obligations of those parties under the terms of the lease, whether with respect to the termination of the tenancy or any other matter; b confer or impose on any such party any right or obligation arising out of or connected with anything done or omitted on or in relation to land which is the subject of the lease, in addition to any such right or obligation provided for by the terms of the lease; or c restrict the enforcement (whether by action for damages or otherwise) by any party to the lease of any obligation of any other party under the lease. Defence to proceedings in respect of statutory nuisance 41 1 Where proceedings are brought under section 82(1) of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 (summary proceedings by person aggrieved by statutory nuisance) in relation to a nuisance falling within paragraph (g) of section 79(1) of that Act (noise emitted from premises so as to be prejudicial to health or a nuisance) no order shall be made, and no fine may be imposed, under section 82(2) of that Act if the defendant shows— a that the nuisance relates to premises used by DLRL for the purposes of or in connection with the exercise of the powers conferred by this Order with respect to works and that the nuisance is attributable to the carrying out of works which are being carried out in accordance with a notice served under section 60, or a consent given under section 61 or 65, of the Control of Pollution Act 1974 ; or b that the nuisance is a consequence of the operation of the works authorised by this Order and that it cannot reasonably be avoided. 2 The following provisions of the Control of Pollution Act 1974, namely— a section 61(9) (consent for work on construction site to include statement that it does not of itself constitute a defence to proceedings under section 82 of the Environmental Protection Act 1990); and b section 65(8) (corresponding provision in relation to consent for registered noise level to be exceeded), shall not apply where the consent relates to the use of premises by DLRL for the purposes of or in connection with the exercise of the powers conferred by this Order with respect to works. 3 The provisions of this article are without prejudice to the application to the authorised works of section 122 of the 1993 Act (statutory authority as a defence to actions in nuisance, etc.) or any rule of common law having similar effect. Disclosure of confidential information 42 A person who— a enters a factory, workshop or workplace in pursuance of the provisions of article 16 (protective works to building) or article 18 (power to survey and investigate land, etc.); and b discloses to any person any information obtained by him relating to any manufacturing process or trade secret, shall be guilty of an offence and liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 3 on the standard scale unless the disclosure is made in the course of performing his duty in connection with the purposes for which he was authorised to enter the land. Application of certain railway enactments 43 1 Any enactment by which any railway or former railway of Network Rail comprised within the affected properties was authorised shall have effect subject to the provisions of this Order. 2 Nothing in paragraph (1) shall prejudice any express statutory provision for— a the protection of the owner, lessee or occupier of any specifically designated property; or b the protection or benefit of any public trustees or commissioners, corporation or other person, specifically named in such provision. 3 In this article “affected properties” means any land described in the book of reference which is owned by Network Rail or in which Network Rail has an interest.
