LANDLORD AND TENANT (IRELAND) ACT 1870 - SECT 6



6. Any landlord or tenant who may be desirous of preserving evidence of any
improvements made by himself or by his predecessors in title before or after
the passing of this Act may at any time (subject to the provisions
herein-after contained) file a schedule in the Landed Estates Court specifying
such improvements, and claiming the same as made by himself or his
predecessors in title, and such schedule so filed shall be prima facie
evidence that such improvements were made as therein mentioned: Provided
always, that notice in writing of the intention to file such schedule,
together with a copy thereof, shall be given by the landlord to the tenant for
the time being of the holding on which such improvements shall have been made
(or by the tenant to the landlord, as the case may be,) within the prescribed
time before applying to the Landed Estates Court to file the same; and if the
person receiving such notice shall dispute the claim made by such schedule,
either wholly or in part, he shall be at liberty within the prescribed time
and in the prescribed manner to apply to the Civil Bill Court to determine the
matter in difference, and in such case such schedule shall not be filed unless
or until leave shall have been given to file the same either in its original
or in any amended form by the Civil Bill Court; provided also, that before
filing any such schedule proof shall be made in the Landed Estates Court by
statutory declaration that the notice hereby required has been duly given, and
that no application has been made within the prescribed time by the party
receiving such notice to the Civil Bill Court, or (if any such application has
been made) that leave has been given by the Civil Bill Court to file such
schedule.
