Enquiry
Could you clarify 3 points for me:
a) I am already registered as an Interested Party. Does this allow me to attend the hearing scheduled for 22 January 2015 on Compulsory Acquisition ?
b) If I am intending to seek compensation under the Compulsory Purchase Code is it necessary for me
to register this in some way ?
c) As a joint owner of the property is it necessary for my wife to register as an IP in order to claim compensation?
Advice given
Your registration allows you to attend the hearing and your request has been noted
The examining authority when making its recommendation to the Secretary of State will make a recommendation about whether or not to grant Compulsory Acquisition powers. The Examining authority will have looked at all the evidence provided in making such a decision. The following guidance may be useful to you attachment 1 . However we suggest that you seek your own professional or legal advice about how compensation works. Information is also publicly available, for example attachment 2
Entitlement to compensation, if the DCO is made and the applicant exercises the Compulsory Acquisition powers isn't dependent on registration as an IP
