The costs as set out above, which are determined net of VAT (upon which no submissions have been received), shall be deducted from the compensation payable in accordance with the provisions of s.4(5) of the 1961 Act. The acquiring authority is invited to make submissions on the question of VAT within 7 days of the date of this addendum before this decision can be made final in all respects.
