Article 24 Powers to acquire subsoil only

DLRL may compulsorily acquire so much of the subsoil of the land referred to in paragraph (1)(a) or (b) of article 20 above as may be required for any purpose for which that land may be acquired under that provision instead of acquiring the whole of the land.

Where DLRL acquires any part of the subsoil of land under paragraph (1) above DLRL shall not be required to acquire an interest in any other part of the land.

Paragraph (2) above shall not prevent article 30 below from applying where DLRL acquires a cellar, vault, arch or other construction forming part of a house, building or factory.
