Section 60 Compensation provisions of this Act to apply to parts of holdings in certain cases.
Scotland
Where—
the tenancy of part of an agricultural holding terminates by reason of such a notice to quit as is rendered valid by section thirty-two of this Act; or
the landlord of an agricultural holding resumes possession of part of the holding in pursuance of a provision in that behalf contained in the lease;
the provisions of this Act with respect to compensation shall apply as if that part of the holding were a separate holding which the tenant had quitted in consequence of a notice to quit:
Provided that, in a case falling within paragraph (b) of this section, the arbiter, in assessing the amount of compensation payable to the tenant, shall take into account any benefit or relief allowed to the tenant under the lease in respect of the land possession of which is resumed by the landlord.
Where any land comprised in a lease is not an agricultural holding within the meaning of this Act by reason only that the land so comprised includes land (in this subsection referred to as “non-statutory land”) which, owing to the nature of the buildings thereon or the use to which it is put, would not, if it had been separately let, be an agricultural holding within the meaning of this Act, the provisions of this Act with respect to compensation for improvements and for disturbance shall, unless it is otherwise agreed in writing, apply to the part of the land exclusive of the non-statutory land as if that part were a separate agricultural holding.
