(1)

The valuer is to assess the amount of compensation to which the landlord or (as the case may be) small landholder is entitled under Chapter 1.

(2)

The valuer is, prior to carrying out the assessment under sub-paragraph (1), to—

(a)

invite the landlord and the landholder to make written representations about the assessment, and

(b)

have regard to any such representations.

(3)

For the purposes of any assessment under sub-paragraph (1), the valuer may—

(a)

enter onto land, and

(b)

require the landlord and landholder to comply with any reasonable request made by the valuer.

(4)

The Scottish Ministers may by regulations modify this paragraph so as to specify the basis on which the valuer is to assess the compensation payable and the consideration to be given to certain matters by the valuer in doing so.

(5)

Before laying a draft of a Scottish statutory instrument containing regulations under sub-paragraph (4) before the Scottish Parliament, the Scottish Ministers must consult such persons as they consider appropriate.
