Lithuanian Parliament adopted the law worked out by TARK GRUNTE SUTKIENE

15.04.2011

On 12 April, the Seimas adopted the Law on Appropriation of Land for Public Needs in Implementing National Projects of Particular Importance, worked out by TARK GRUNTE SUTKIENE. The Law simplifies the procedure for appropriation of land for public needs in implementing particularly important national projects in the areas of energy infrastructure, transport infrastructure or national defence. The Law minimises possibilities of abusing the landowner’s rights, appropriation of land may be appealed against only once, and the court may examine the compensation issue after the appropriation of land.

According to Ms. Eugenija Sutkienė, Managing Partner of TARK GRUNTE SUTKIENE (Vilnius) and drafter of the Law, “the law accelerates the implementation of projects such as Rail Baltica or power interconnections. It is a significant step in implementing large projects supported by the EU funds and the goal of national energy independence”,
