    High Court

    The judgment was recalled because the court failed to consider a pleaded, material claim for services easements (a very special reason). On the remedial and broad wording of s129B, and its powers to impose terms and make consequential orders, the Court has jurisdiction to grant services easements ancillary to an access easement where they are necessary to give full effect to the access relief granted; accordingly services easements were ordered over the same route and compensation adjusted.
