HOUSING OF THE WORKING CLASSES ACT 1890 - SECT 74

74.(1) The Settled Land Act, 1882, shall be amended as follows:

(a)Any sale, exchange, or lease of land in pursuance of the said Act, when
made for the purpose of the erection on such land of dwellings..., may be made
at such price, or for such consideration, or for such rent, as having regard
to the said purpose, and to all the circumstances of the case, is the best
that can be reasonably obtained, notwithstanding that a higher price,
consideration, or rent might have been obtained if the land were sold,
exchanged, or leased for another purpose.

(b)The improvements on which capital money may be expended, enumerated in
section twenty-five of the said Act, and referred to in section thirty of the
said Act, shall, in addition to cottages for labourers, farm servants, and
artizans whether employed on the settled land or not, include any
dwellings..., the building of which in the opinion of the Court is not
injurious to the estate.

(2) Any body corporate holding land may sell, exchange, or lease the land for
the purpose of the erection of dwellings... at such price, or for such
consideration, or for such rent as having regard to the said purpose and to
all the circumstances of the case is the best that can reasonably be obtained,
notwithstanding that a higher price, consideration, or rent might have been
obtained if the land were sold, exchanged, or leased for another purpose.
