Acquisition of land for public works - Compulsory acquisition of land
22: Only land required for essential works may be compulsorily taken
You could also call this:
“This rule about taking land for important projects no longer exists”
This part of the law used to say something about when the government could take land for important projects. However, it was removed from the law on 31 March 1987. This means that this specific rule no longer applies. If you want to know about the current rules for when the government can take land for public projects, you would need to look at other parts of the law that are still in effect.
