Abstract

The article examines both the principals and methodology proper to ground value assessing that the New
Law expounds especially as to its treatment of value. Its principle innovations are thus set out within the
context of the on-going debate as to compulsory purchase that goes back to the Nineteenth Century to then
enliven the Twentieth with its successive Laws as to ground usage. The New Law is seen as marking a
point of inflexion in this debate and as offering a new route map that should lead on to an uncompromising
acceptance of the idea that any urban ground’s increase in value that is the outcome of public planning is
to be held both public and social, this entailing the removal of reversion rights from urban development.
