[Cases (2)]. Both cases involved plaintiffs claiming compensation for property that had been compulsorily purchased from them. According to the defendants, the level of compensation was to be assessed in compliance with the Housing Act 1925. The plaintiffs refuted this, however. They argued that the assessment should be calculated according to the more generous terms of the Acquisition of Land Act 1919, which had expressly stipulated that its provisions were to prevail over any others passed or to be passed. The court held that it was bound to apply the terms of the later 1925 Act. If the plaintiff's claim had succeeded, the 1919 Act would effectively have become entrenched.
Answer
Vauxhall Estates v Liverpool Corporation [1932] and Ellen St Estates v Minister of Health [1934]
