Clause 11: Notice of an order under clause
10 is to be given in a manner similar to the giving of
a notice of resumption. The contents of a notice under
this clause are prescribed by subclause (3).
Under item 4 of Part I of the Schedule any
person who would be entitled to claim compensation under
the Streets (Alteration) Ordinance (Cap. 130) if the
closure or substantial alteration of a street were
made thereunder may claim compensation for pecuniary
loss or damage as if the Streets (Alteration) Ordinance
applied. Under item 5 of Part I of the Schedule any
person who suffers a pecuniary loss by reason of the
extinguishment, modification or restriction of a
private right over Crown foreshore or seabed may claim
compensation for the pecuniary loss resulting therefrom.
Clause 12: The Director of Public Works may
carry out reasonably necessary preventive or remedial work
on any land or building in the railway area or within
30 metres thereof and may enter to inspect or survey
for those purposes.
Unless the Director considers
that an emergency exists or the entry is required only
for an inspection or survey the person entering must
give 14 days' notice to the owner and the occupier.
"Work of a preventive or remedial nature" is defined in
subclause (4) and the decision of the Director that
work comes within that definition and is reasonably
necessary is to be final.
