uin	151068
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/06/2018 answer text <p>Although HS2 will benefit the whole country, the Government understands the impact and anxiety that its proposals had on property owners affected by route proposals. As with other large-scale infrastructure projects, once route proposals are published, it is not uncommon for local properties to experience the effects of generalised blight. That is why the Government launched a suite of HS2 non-statutory property compensation schemes between 2010 and 2017 in advance of and at route phase announcements to address those impacts. In addition, qualifying owner-occupiers have a statutory entitlement to apply to the Government to have their property purchased where a proposed route is protected from conflicting development through the issuing of safeguarding directions.</p> answering member constituency Wealden answering member printed Ms Nusrat Ghani question first answered 15/06/2018 09:20:40 answering member 4460 label Biography information for Ms Nusrat Ghani
