The Act also made provision for compensation to be paid to the former holders of securities of the acquired companies, for the safeguarding of the assets of the nationalised undertakings, for the appointment of stockholders' representatives and for the establishment of an Arbitration Tribunal.
Section 41(1) of the 1977 Act provided that a Stockholders' Representative was to be appointed in respect of each acquired company "to represent the interests of holders of securities of that company in connection with the determination of the base value of those securities".

Wrongful acts occur when an injury is a) caused by conduct consisting of an action or omission which is attributable to the State under international law; and b) that conduct constitutes a breach of an international obligation of the State.
Even where a state's agents have acted beyond their authority (ultra vires), or, for that matter, in the absence of intention to harm (dolus malus) or the presence of good faith, it will bear responsibility for all its acts which fail to conform to international legal standards.
This defense may not be invoked unless: a) the act was the only means of safeguarding an essential interest of the State against a grave and imminent period; and b) the act did not seriously impair an essential interest of the State towards which the obligation existed.
