1929

in land has necessitated the revision of the fundamental provision of the Act by which the occupancy tenant right is limited to one person in the chain of those interested in the land. [...] The Bill therefore includes provisions for the payment of a transfer fee to the landlord and also gives him the right to have the holding transferred to himself on payment to the transferee of the consideration money and 10 per cent. [...] The transfer fee will not be payable in the case of a transfer by bequest in favour of a natural heir nor will the landlord have the right to purchase the holding if the transfer is of this kind or is made to a co-slaarer in the tenancy. [...] The Bill therefore on the one hand provides for the appointment of a common agent to act on behalf of joint or co-sharer landlords ; and on the other makes co-sharer tenants jointly and severally liable for the rent of the holding and provides that a decree for arrears of rent obtained against co-tenants who in accordance with the definition in the Bill represent the entire body of the co-share [...] 9. Of the other changes proposed in the Bill the more important are the simplification of the procedure in connection with the transfer of permanent tenures the repeal of Chapter XII of the Act some simplification of judicial procedure and the reconciliation of differences between the Bengal Tenancy (Amendment) Act 1907 and the Eastern Bengal and Assam Tenancy (Amendment) Act 1908.
