Chapter 3: Enforcement Section 34: Compensation for notices wrongly given
This Section sets out that the Secretary of State is liable to pay compensation to the person to whom a stop or a recall notice is wrongly given for loss or damage caused as a result of the giving of the notice. Compensation is only payable if the breach that led to the imposition of the stop or recall notice did not occur, and the decision to give a notice was not due to any neglect or default by the recipient of the notice.
	Subsection (3) states that the Secretary of State will be responsible for determining the amount of compensation payable to a person under this Section.
	Subsection (4) states that the Secretary of State may take into consideration the extent to which the person took reasonable steps to reduce the loss or damage caused as a result of the giving of the notice.
	Subsections (5) and (6) states that a person seeking compensation must make a claim to the Secretary of State which includes evidence of the loss or damage in respect of which compensation is sought and the amount of the compensation sought. The claim must be made in a form and manner directed by the Secretary of State.
	Subsection (7) provides that the Secretary of State must decide whether compensation will be paid and the amount of any compensation (if payable) and notify the person making the claim of their decision within 45 days beginning on the day on which the Secretary of State receives a claim.
