RAILWAYS ACT (IRELAND) 1860 - SECT 2



2. ... When the company are desirous, for the purposes of their works, of
entering upon any lands before they would be entitled to enter thereon under
the provisions in the said Act, as amended by this Act, it shall be lawful for
the company, at any time after the arbitrator shall have framed his draft
award, upon [paying into the Supreme Court of Judicature of Northern Ireland]
such sum or sums as the arbitrator may certify to be in his opinion the proper
amount to be so deposited in respect of any lands authorized to be purchased
or taken by the company, and mentioned in such draft award, or of the several
interests in such lands in respect of which no agreement shall have been come
to between the company and the persons entitled thereto, to enter upon and use
such lands for the purpose of the railway and works of the company; and the
arbitrator shall, upon the request of the company, at any time after he shall
have framed such draft award, certify under his hand the sum or sums which in
his opinion should be so deposited by the company in respect of any lands
mentioned in such draft award, or of any such interest therein as aforesaid,
before they enter upon or use the same as aforesaid; and the sum or sums to be
so certified shall be the sum or sums set forth in such draft award as payable
by the company in respect of such lands or of such interests in such lands in
respect of which no agreement shall have been come to between the company and
the persons entitled thereto, or such greater amounts as to the arbitrator
under the circumstances of the case shall seem proper; and notwithstanding
such entry as aforesaid, all proceedings for and in relation to the completion
of the said award, the delivery of certificates, and other proceedings under
the said Act as amended by this Act, and under this Act, shall be had, and
payments made, as if such entry and deposit had not been made: Provided, that
the company shall, where they enter upon any lands by virtue of this present
provision, pay interest at the rate of five pounds per centum per annum upon
the purchase and compensation money payable by them in respect of any lands so
entered upon from the time of their entry until the time of the payment of
such purchase money and compensation to the person entitled thereto, or, where
under the provisions of the said Act as amended by this Act such purchase
money or compensation is required to be paid into [the said Court], then until
the same with such interest is paid into [the said Court] accordingly; and
where under this provision interest is payable on any purchase or compensation
money, the certificate to be delivered by the company in respect thereof shall
specify that interest is so payable, and the same shall be recoverable in like
manner as the principal money mentioned in such certificate.
