Application of landlord and tenant law
39.—(1) This article applies to—
(a)an agreement for leasing to a person the whole or any part of the authorised development or the right to operate it; and
(b)an agreement entered into by the undertaker with a person for the construction, maintenance, use or operation of the authorised development or any part of it,
so far as any such agreement relates to the terms on which any land that is the subject of a lease granted by or under that agreement is to be provided for that person’s use.
(2) The operation of any agreement to which this article applies is not prejudiced by any enactment or rule of law regulating the rights and obligations of landlords and tenants.
(3) Accordingly, no such enactment or rule of law applies in relation to the rights and obligations of the parties to any lease granted by or under any such agreement so as to—
(a)exclude or in any respect modify any of the rights and obligations of those parties under the terms of the lease, whether with respect to the termination of the tenancy or any other matter;
(b)confer or impose on any such party any right or obligation arising out of or connected with anything done or omitted on or in relation to land which is the subject of the lease, in addition to any such right or obligation provided for by the terms of the lease; or
(c)restrict the enforcement (whether by action for damages or otherwise) by any party to the lease of any obligation of any other party under the lease.
