Under the State Acquisition of Lands Ordinance (CAP 95B) the Republic has the power to acquire land for public purposes by purchasing the freehold or obtaining a lease. This Act gives the Republic the further power of compelling the surrender of a lease, sublease, or licence. Consideration or compensation, as with the obtaining of the freehold or a lease, will have to be paid.
