HC Deb 27 April 1978 vol 948 cc641-2W
Mr. Edge

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what provision exists in relation to the right of tenants of agricultural land when they are given notice to quit by the landlord of the property.

Mr. Bishop

A landlord may only serve an effective notice to quit on an agricultural tenant in certain closely defined circumstances. These, and the tenant's rights, are set out in the Agricultural Holdings (Notices to Quit) Act 1977 and the Agricultural Holdings (Arbitration on Notices) Order 1978 (SI 1978 No. 257).
