82 Adjoining land may be provided as compensation
(1) If the Authority is liable to pay compensation to a Council under section 80, the Authority may require the Council to take land—
(a) that adjoins land owned by the Council; and
(b) that is owned by the Authority or is surplus land.
(2) The value of that land must be deducted from any amount to be paid by way of compensation to the Council by the Authority under section 80.
(3) If the Authority and the Council cannot agree on the value of the adjoining land, the value must be settled in the same manner and at the same time as the compensation to be paid to the Council under section 80.
