a) may by interim order suspend the operation of the compulsory order as so confirmed either generally or in so far only as it affects any property of the applicant until the final determination of the proceedings;

b) if satisfied upon the hearing of the application that the compulsory purchase order as so confirmed is not within the powers of the Housing Act, 1966 (as amended), or that the interests of the applicant have been substantially prejudiced by any requirement of the Act not having been complied with, may quash the order as so confirmed either generally or in so far only as it affects any property of the applicant.
