GIARDINI FOUNDATION ( v ) PREFACE. THE Small Holdings and Allotments Act, 1908, consolidated the previous enactments on the subject, and has since been itself amended by and consolidated with the Land Settlement (Facilities) Act, 1919, and the Small Holdings and Allotments Act, 1926, and the existing law as to small holdings is to be found in these Acts. The assessment of compensation on the acquisition of land under these Acts, or for other purposes by any Government Department, or any local or public authority, has been amended and simplified by the Acquisition of Land (Assessment of Compensation) Act, 1919, which supersedes, in the cases where it applies, the provisions for ascertainment of compensation contained in the Land Clauses Consolidation Act, 1845. The law relating to allotments has been considerably modified and amended by the Allotments Acts, 1922 and 1925, which with the provisions of the Small Holdings and Allotments Acts, 1908 to 1919, which relate to allotments, may be cited together as the Allotments Acts, 1908 to 1925. The Act of 1922 introduced a new species of allotment under the name of an "Allotment Garden," and the Act of 1926 created a new form of small holding called a "Cottage Holding." |
