The
Land Commission Act came into effect on 6th April, 1967. This Act is bound to
affect, directly or indirectly, almost all our members and it is only right that
some guidance should be given to its complicated provisions. Several articles on
the Act have appeared in other publications, and the following article,
reprinted from "The Valuer" by kind permission of the Editor and Mr.
Taylor, is considered to be one of the best. The series of leading articles on
arbitration in the professions has been interrupted so that this article can appear
as soon as possible after the introduction of the Act.
