The Agriculture (Maintenance, Repair and Insurance of Fixed Equipment) (Amendment) Regulations 1988
These Regulations are made under section 7(1) of the Agricultural Holdings Act 1986, as read with section 7(2) of that Act. They amend the Agriculture (Maintenance, Repair and Insurance of Fixed Equipment) Regulations 1973 ( “the 1973 Regulations”) which were made under section 6(1) of the Agricultural Holdings Act 1948(c. 63) as read with section 15(2) of the Agriculture (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1972(c. 62). Section 6(1) and section 15(2) have been re-enacted in section 7(1) and (2) of the 1986 Act. The 1973 Regulations prescribe model clauses relating to the maintenance, repair and insurance of fixed equipment. These clauses are deemed to be incorporated in every contract of tenancy of an agricultural holding except in so far as they would impose on one of the parties to an agreement in writing a liability which under the agreement is imposed on the other.
