ABSTRACT
The main object of English Partnerships (s 159(2)) is to secure the regeneration of: 1 land which is vacant or unused; 2 land in an urban area which is under used or ineffectively used; 3 land which is contaminated, derelict, neglected or unsightly; and 4 land which is likely to become derelict, neglected or unsightly by reason
of actual or apprehended collapse of the surface as the result of carrying out relevant operations which have ceased to be carried out (‘relevant operations’ are defined in s 1 of the Derelict Land Act 1982).
