The Minister may, for the purposes of this Act, acquire land (including an interest in land) by agreement or compulsory process in accordance with the Land Acquisition (Just Terms Compensation) Act 1991.

The Minister may not give a proposed acquisition notice under the Land Acquisition (Just Terms Compensation) Act 1991 in respect of public water land without the appropriate consent.

For the purposes of subsection (2), the appropriate consent is—

the authority controlling the dam or reservoir, and

the Ministers respectively administering the Public Health Act 2010 and the Public Works Act 1912, and

in relation to public water land that is Crown land—the consent of the Minister administering the Crown Land Management Act 2016, and

in relation to public water land (other than that referred to in paragraph (a)) that is vested in a public authority or in trustees for a public purpose—the consent of that authority or those trustees.

For the purposes of the Public Works Act 1912, any such acquisition of land is taken to be for an authorised work, and the Minister is, in relation to that authorised work, taken to be the Constructing Authority.

Sections 34, 35, 36 and 37 of the Public Works Act 1912 do not apply in respect of works constructed under this Act.
