Transport Administration Act 1988

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

The other purposes for which land may be acquired under subsection (1) include the purposes of a future sale, lease or disposal, that is, to enable Sydney Trains to exercise its functions in relation to land under this Act.

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

Sydney Trains may not give a proposed acquisition notice under the Land Acquisition (Just Terms Compensation) Act 1991 without the approval of TfNSW.

Any such acquisition is not void merely because it is expressed to be for the purposes of Sydney Trains or for the purposes of this Act.

Part 3 of the Public Works and Procurement Act 1912 does not apply in respect of works constructed for the purposes of this section.
