To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what financial compensation has been agreed by HS2 Ltd for the compulsory purchase of land in Denham.
Paul Maynard
Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport)
All compulsory purchase payments made by HS2 Ltd are in line with the compensation code – the body of statute, case law and established practice that underpins the approach to property compensation. Information regarding financial compensation for specific land or to individuals is not made publicly available as it is commercially sensitive.
HS2 Ltd publishes detailed information online regarding compulsory purchase compensation and procedures. This information can be found at:
