(a) if, on a claim made to the planning authority, it is shown that any person interested in the land has incurred expenditure or entered into a contract to incur expenditure in respect of works which are rendered abortive by the revocation or modification, the planning authority shall pay to that person compensation in respect of that expenditure or contract,

(b) the provisions of this Part shall apply in relation to the decision where it revoked the permission or modified it by the imposition of conditions—
