LAND ACQUISITION AND COMPENSATION (NORTHERN

61.(1) Where a blight notice is served in respect of an interest in the whole
or part of an agricultural unit and on the date of service that unit or part
contains land (in this Part referred to as "the unaffected area") which does
not fall within any of the specified descriptions as well as land (in this
Part referred to as "the affected area") which does so, the claimant may
include in the notice

(a)a claim that the unaffected area is not reasonably capable of being farmed,
either by itself or in conjunction with other relevant land, as a separate
agricultural unit; and

(b)a requirement that the appropriate authority shall purchase his interest in
the whole of the unit or, as the case may be, in the whole of the part of it
to which the notice relates.

(2) Subject to Article 62(3), "other relevant land" in paragraph (1) means

(a)land comprised in the remainder of the agricultural unit if the blight
notice is served only in respect of part of it;

(b)land comprised in any other agricultural unit occupied by the claimant on
the date of service, being land in respect of which he is then entitled to an
owner's interest as defined in section 2(5) of the Act of 1971.
