Land Commission (Gazetted Land) (Disposal in Lieu of Compensation) Regulations, 2020

A repealed 2020 process for disposal of gazetted land in lieu of compensation, retained with its repeal notice.

In brief

These regulations created a process through which specified former owners of compulsorily acquired agricultural land could seek land in lieu of compensation. They were repealed in 2024 and are presented only as historical context, not as a current application route.

What to look for

  • The instrument addressed disposal of land in lieu of compensation for defined applicants.
  • It set an application and committee process beneath the Land Commission Act.
  • SI 135 of 2024 repealed it, so it must not be relied on as current law.
