    CACV152/1980

    s.52(1) makes contractual tenancy incapable of termination during Part II so a landlord may obtain possession under s.53(2) without prior determination of the head-tenancy; an oral/unauthorised consent did not estop enforcement of the statutory right; s.53(5)/(6) do not bar making an effective possession order against a sub-tenant, therefore the sub-tenant was not protected and the possession order against both defendants was proper.
