Compulsory Purchase and Compensation remains the essential guide to this complex and increasingly relevant area of the law. Now in its 12th edition, no other book presents the same level of information on the law relating to compulsory purchase and compensation in England and Wales in such an accessible way. The book is also especially suited to those coming to this complex subject without a specific background in the law and is ideal reading for those students taking planning and built environment modules. Surveyors in particular will find this book invaluable. Whilst this new edition picks up the very many decisions of the Upper Tribunal and the higher courts since the 11th edition, the principal piece of new legislation is the Levelling-up and Regeneration Act 2023. One of the controversial provisions in the 2023 Act is the power to include in a compulsory purchase order a direction, the effect of which is that in relation to certain limited purposes, compensation shall be assessed on the basis that no planning permission would be granted for development on the relevant land; in effect, no hope value and only existing use values would be paid.

In this pioneering work Siraj Sait and Hilary Lim address Islamic property and land rights, drawing on a range of socio-historical, classical and contemporary resources. They address the significance of Islamic theories of property and Islamic land tenure regimes on the 'webs of tenure' prevalent in the Muslim societies. They consider the possibility of using Islamic legal and human rights systems for the development of inclusive, pro-poor approaches to land rights. They also focus on Muslim women's rights to property and inheritance systems. Engaging with institutions such as the Islamic endowment (waqf) and principles of Islamic microfinance, they test the workability of 'authentic' Islamic proposals. Located in human rights as well as Islamic debates, this study offers a well researched and constructive appraisal of property and land rights in the Muslim world.

This paper seeks to answer a number of basic questions. First of all just what are land tenure rights and water rights? Second, how do the respective regimes compare? Third what linkages, if any, are there between land tenure rights and water rights and, if there are none, does this matter, either in general or as regards specific aspects of the interface? A key objective of the paper is to examine which aspects of the rights interface merit further research. In comparing the two regimes a final subsidiary objective of this paper is to try and identify which areas, if any, in one sector can shed light on areas for future research in the other.
