The Gazette of the Incorporated Law Society of Ireland.

[JUNE, 1911

1892, did not apply to leases granted before

the commencement of the Act.

Mr Justice Joyce held that Section 3 of

the Act of 1892 was intended to apply to

every lease, both existing and future, so as,

in effect, as from the commencement of the

Act and in the absence of an express pro

vision to the contrary, to engraft upon each

lease a very plain enactment to which proper

effect must be given, and that the objection

taken by the defendant failed;

and he

accordingly made

the

declaratory order

asked for.

The Master of the Rolls gave judgment

dismissing the appeal, holding that Section 3

is a general enactment based' on grounds of

public policy, and declining to construe it

in such a way as to render it inoperative for

many years wherever leases for 99 years, or

it may be for 999 years, are in existence ;

and also holding

that the effect of

the

refusal of the landlord to give his consent

except on payment of a fine was to relieve

the lessee from obtaining the lessor's consent.

The Lords Justices concurred.
