Notices to Quit (Ireland) Act, 1876

Provision as to existing tenancies from year to year.

6. . . . in all cases of tenancies from year to year existing at the time of the passing of this Act, unless there be a special agreement in writing as to the time and mode of determining such tenancy, the tenancy shall only be determinable by a notice to quit expiring on the last gale day of any year, and served six calendar months previously; and every notice to quit so served and requiring the tenant to give up possession on such gale day shall be sufficient to determine the tenancy, irrespective of the period of the year at which such tenancy commenced, and such tenancy shall be determined on the day named in such notice in the same manner as if the tenancy had originally commenced upon a day of the year corresponding to such day.
