Subsection (10) states that Ministers shall pay for the valuation under this section.

Section 64: Procedure for valuation

Subsections (2) and (3) require the appointed valuer to notify Ministers, the landowner and the community body of his/her valuation of the land and any moveable property. This must be completed within 6 weeks of being appointed, or in a longer period as determined by Ministers. Subsection (4) confirms that the validity of the transfer is not affected by any failure to comply with the time limit set to supply a valuation.

Section 65: Provisions supplementary to section 58: salmon fishings and minerals

Subsection (1) sets out that where the community body is exercising its right to buy over salmon fishings or mineral rights, it must already own, or at the same time be exercising its right to buy, the land to which these rights relate. If not, Ministers shall not consent to the right to buy these ancillary rights.

Subsection (2) states that where, in respect of land in which a community body has a registered interest, the landowner has leased the shooting or fishing rights to another person who seeks to assign the remaining period of the sporting lease to another party, then the community body has the right to acquire these rights.
