g) “To note that
paragraph 22 of the report proposes that the Block 6 site is
appropriated for planning purposes. As such, section 203 of the
Housing and Planning Act 2016 would enable redevelopment of the
Site in connection with the Winstanley-York Road regeneration
notwithstanding any infringement of private third-party rights and
interests covered by section 203. The effect of this decision would

parties who suffer a relevant loss or injury a right to claim
statutory compensation under section 204 of that Act when
development is carried out”.
