Property Acquisitions

What is Property Acquisition?

Property acquisition is the process whereby the NSW Government can acquire private property for public purposes. Acquisitions occur when the NSW Government acquires land, or rights over land, from an owner with the required consent under the Land Acquisition (Just Terms Compensation) Act 1991 (NSW).

Property Acquisitions by the NSW Government

The NSW Government has the right to acquire private property for public purposes, including transport projects and secure public housing. The Government will use the Land Acquisition (Just Terms Compensation) Act 1991 (NSW) compensation provisions to acquire property from the current owners.
