Commentary on Sections Compensation Section 56: Independent valuer: money
148.Subsection (1) allows the order to make provision for the remuneration and allowances of the independent valuer, his staff, appointing persons or monitors. Although such payments will be made by the Treasury, the order will require the Treasury to appoint a person to monitor the arrangements made for the remuneration and allowances (subsection (2)). Further functions may be conferred on the monitor, such as requiring his approval to certain actions.
149.Subsections (2)(c) and (d)  give the Treasury a power to include provision in the order about records, accounts and staff resources. This section also provides that the independent valuer and his staff are not liable for damages for anything done in good faith when undertaking their respective roles in relation to independent valuation (save in respect of awards of damages under the Human Rights Act 1998, for unlawful actions under that Act).
