HC Deb 26 November 1992 vol 214 c799W
Mr. Ron Davies

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will propose measures to facilitate the introduction of retirement tenancies as part of reforms of agricultural tenancy law.

Mr. David Hunt

The Government's proposals for reform of agricultural tenancy law would give landlords and tenants the freedom to agree the period of tenancy which was suited to their particular needs. The parties would be able to take account of all factors in deciding the appropriate period including any retirement plans of the tenant.
