July's Discussion: Severance & Injurious Affection

Where only part of a landowner’s interest is acquired, if the value of their retained land is diminished because of its severance from land acquired compulsorily, or as a result of injurious affection through the execution or use of scheme works, they are able to claim compensation under s.7 of the Compulsory Purchase Act 1965.

Compensation for injurious affection may also be claimed in some circumstances where no part of a landowner’s property interest is acquired; either if the execution of works for a scheme reduces the value of a property (under s.10 of the Compulsory Purchase Act 1965), or if a property’s value is reduced as a result of physical factors arising from the use of public works (under Part 1 of the Land Compensation Act 1973).

In this talking heads session, we will look at the circumstances in which compensation for severance and injurious affection can be claimed, the limitations on claims, and how claims can best be evidenced.
