The Regulatory Reform (Agricultural Tenancies) (England and Wales) Order 2006
This Order amends the Agricultural Holdings Act 1986 (“the 1986 Act”) and the Agricultural Tenancies Act 1995 (“the 1995 Act”), which regulate tenancies of agricultural land in England and Wales. The amendments affect rent reviews, succession under the 1986 Act, end of tenancy compensation, arbitration under the 1986 Act, the application of the 1986 Act to new tenancies, and notice periods under the 1995 Act. The amendments give parties to agricultural tenancies greater freedom of contract in these areas.
