(3)A lease, variation, renewal or other disposition granted or effected pursuant to a proposal notified, to the Commission under either of the preceding subsections shall be deemed to have been granted or effected in conformity in all respects with the rules mentioned in the last preceding section unless, in proceedings commenced by the Commission within two months from the date on which they have been notified of the proposal, the Court makes a declaration that the proposal is not in conformity therewith.
(4)If—
(a)any such lease, variation or renewal as is mentioned in subsection (1) of this section is granted or effected during the interim period otherwise than pursuant to a proposal notified to the Commission as required by that subsection ; or
(b)any such lease, variation or renewal as aforesaid, or any other disposition of or affecting any premises that are to vest in the Commission by virtue of this Part of this Act, is granted or effected during the interim period in such manner as to contravene any of the said rules;
