The subsection reads:

a compulsory purchase order made ... for the purpose of mitigating the impact of any public transport infrastructure provided on the environment generally or on— (a) any particular site, building or structure,

(b) the availability of parking, or

(c) trees, landscaping and planting, in particular, where appropriate, by relocating or replacing (if necessary with a similar but not identical equivalent) an existing building, structure or amenity, or any part of such a building, structure or amenity

Amendment No. 65 proposes to delete from "in particular" onwards, essentially removing the authority's power to replace an existing building, structure or amenity that has been removed as part of the compulsory purchase of land for the purpose of public transport.
