SCHEDULE 2
STATEMENT OF EFFECT OF PARTS 2 AND 3 OF THE COMPULSORY PURCHASING (VESTING DECLARATIONS) ACT 1981
Power to execute a general vesting declaration
Once the Basildon Borough Council (Fryerns and Craylands) (PhaseNorth) Compulsory Order 2020 has become operative the basildon Borough Council (herinafter called "the Authority") may aquireany of the land described in Schedule 1 above by executing a general vesting declaration under Section 4 of the Compulsory Purchase (Vesting Declarations) Act 1981 ("the Act"). This has the effect, subject to paragraphs 3 and 5 below, of vesting the land in the Authority at the end of the period mentioned in paragraph 2 below.
Notices concerning general vesting declaration
As soon as may be after the Authority execute a general vesting declaration, they must serve notice of it on every occupier of any of the land specified in the declaration (except land where there is one of the tenancies described in paragraph 4) and on every person who gives them information relating to the land in pursuance of the invitation contained in the confirmation notice of the order. When the service of notices of the general vesting declaration is completed, a period specified in the declaration, of not less than three months, will begin to run. On the first day after the end of this period the land described in the declaration will, subject to what is said in paragraphs 3 and 5, vest in the Authority together with the right to enter on the land and take possession of it. Every person on whom the Authority could have served a notice to treat in respect of his interest in the land (other than a tenant under one of the tenancies described in paragraph 4) will be entitled to claim compensation for the acquisition of his interest in the land, with interest on the compensation from the vesting date.
The "vesting date" for any land specified in a declaration will be the first day after the end of the period mentioned in paragraph 2 above, unless a counter-notice is served under Schedule A1 to the Act within that period. In such circumstances, the vesting date for the land which is the subject of the counter-notice will be determined in accordance with Schedule A1.
Modifications with respect to certain tenancies In the case of certain tenancies, the position stated above is subject to modifications. The modifications apply where the tenancy is either a "minor tenancy", i.e. a tenancy for a year or a yearly tenancy or a lesser interest, or "a long tenancy which is about to expire". The latter expression means a tenancy granted for an interest greater than a minor tenancy but having on the vesting date a period still to run which is not more than the period specified in the declaration for this purpose (which must be more than a year). In calculating how long a tenancy has still to run, where any option to renew or to terminate it is available to either party, it shall be assumed that the landlord will take every opportunity open to him to terminate the tenancy while the tenant will use every opportunity to retain or renew his interest. The modifications are that the Authority may not exercise the right of entry referred to in paragraph 2 in respect of  land subject to a tenancy described in paragraph 4 unless they first serve notice to treat in respect of the tenancy and then serve every occupier of the land with a notice of their  intention to enter and take possession after the period (not less than three months from the service of the notice) specified in the notice. The right of entry will be exercisable at the end of that period. The vesting of the land will be  subject to the tenancy until the end of that period or until the tenancy comes to an end, whichever happens first.
