This Act provides for the control of tenantries, i.e. an area of land, including public land, subdivided before a specified date into lots for letting for specified purposes. Division or sale of a tenantry requires the permission of the Chief Town Planner. The Act also places restrictions on an order of ejectment of tenants to be made on application of an owner or lessee of a tenantry and defines powers of court in an ejectment proceeding.
