CHAPTER X.
PROCEDURE.
CLAUSES OF THE ACT.
Notice of intended claim.20.—Notwithstanding anything in this Act, a tenant shall not be entitled to compensation under this Act unless one month at least before the determination of the tenancy he gives notice in writing to the landlord of his intention to make a claim for compensation under this Act.
Where a tenant gives such a notice the landlord may, before the determination of the tenancy, or within fourteen days thereafter, give a counter-notice in writing to the tenant of his intention to make a claim for compensation under this Act.
Every such notice and counter-notice shall state, as far as reasonably may be, the particulars of the intended claim.
Compensation agreed or settled by reference.21.—The landlord and the tenant may agree on the amount and mode and time of payment of compensation to be paid to the tenant or to the landlord under this Act.
If in any case they do not so agree the difference shall be settled by a reference.
