1845 c.18

97.(1) Where a council desires to acquire land otherwise than by agreement for
any purpose for which it is authorised by a transferred provision so to

referred to as a "vesting order") vesting the land in the council, and that
Ministry may make a vesting order.

(2) The provisions of Schedule 6 shall apply with respect to the making and
effect of vesting orders.

(3) The power to make a vesting order may be exercised over land

(4) Nothing in this section shall authorise the acquisition, without the
consent of the Minstry of Finance, of any land on or in which there is, to the
knowledge of that Ministry, any historic monument or archaeological object.

(5) In subsection (4), "historic monument" and "archaeological object" have
the same meanings as in the Historic Monuments Act (Northern Ireland) 1971.
