Acquisition of part of certain properties 21.—(1) This article shall apply instead of section 8(1) of the 1965 Act (other provisions as


divided land) (as applied by section 125 of the 2008 Act) 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 manufactory 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 the undertaker a counter-notice objecting to the sale of the land subject to the notice to treat which states that the owner 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 the undertaker agrees to take the land subject to the counter-notice, be referred to the tribunal.


(5) If on such a reference the tribunal determines 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) where the land subject to the notice to treat consists 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 determines 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) where the land subject to the notice to treat consists 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 is deemed to be a notice to treat for that part.


(7) If on such a reference the tribunal determines 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 is 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 the undertaker is authorised to acquire compulsorily under this Order.


(8) If the undertaker agrees to take the land subject to the counter-notice, or if the tribunal determines 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 is 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 the undertaker is authorised to acquire compulsorily under this Order.


(9) Where, by reason 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, the
