LAND LAW (IRELAND) ACT 1881 - SECT 22

22. A tenant whose holding or the aggregate of whose holdings is valued under
the Act relating to the valuation of rateable property in Ireland at an annual
value of not less than one hundred and fifty pounds, shall be entitled by
writing under his hand to contract himself out of any of the provisions of
this Act or of the Landlord and Tenant (Ireland) Act, 1870.

Where the tenancy in a holding subject to the Ulster tenant-right custom or to
any corresponding usage, has been purchased by the landlord from the tenant by
voluntary purchase before the passing of this Act, then, if at the date of the
passing of this Act the owner of any such holding is in actual occupation
thereof, it shall be lawful, in the case of the first tenancy created in the
holding after the passing of this Act, for the parties to the contract
creating the same, by writing under their hands, to provide that such tenancy
shall be exempt from the provisions of section one of this Act.

Save as in this section mentioned any provision contained in any lease or
contract of tenancy or other contract made after the passing of this Act,
which provision is inconsistent with any of the foregoing provisions of
this Act or with any of the provisions of the
Landlord and Tenant (Ireland) Act, 1870, shall be void.

Powers of limited owner.
