"content": "I have some observations because the Departmental Committee on Lands has tabled the Report on this today. Although you are trying to avoid speculation, sometimes when we realise that there is a big public project coming up, we try to speculate the prices of the land to be acquired. That needs to be avoided. That notwithstanding, we may need to look at Clause 6(c)(i) that provides that the increase in the apparent value of land is occasioned by any development or improvement of the land, if the improvement was made on the land within two years prior to the date of the publication in the Gazette Notice that this land will be acquired. Surely, if you had developed your land two years before you realised that it will be compulsorily acquired, that improvement needs to be taken into account. But Clause 6(c)(ii) says that if the improvement was done after the date of the publication in the Gazette Notice on the intention to acquire land, I agree that you do not need to take that into account. There is no need to continue developing the land when it is already shown in the Gazette Notice that it will be acquired."
