The section deals with farm restructuring. An issue relating to lands acquired by compulsory purchase order, CPO, and roll-over relief was raised by a number of my constituents. This is not covered by the legislation, but is there an opportunity to consider the provision of roll-over relief for persons whose farmland has been the subject of CPOs in order that they can reinvest the money either in farmland or farm reconstruction?
