(ii) references in those sections to the purchaser were references to the vendor; and
(b) in addition to the matters mentioned in section 15(1) , the order may make provision for any other matter in respect of which it is necessary or convenient for provision to be made to put any person affected by the initial order into the position the person would have been in had the initial order not been made.
