6A(1)
Where a tenant of a house dies and, immediately before his death, he had under this Part of this Act—
(a) the right to acquire the freehold, or
(b) the right to an extended lease,
the right is exercisable by his personal representatives while the tenancy is vested in them (but subject to subsection (2) below); and, accordingly, in such a case references in this Part of this Act to the tenant shall, in so far as the context permits, be to the personal representatives.
6A(2)
The personal representatives of a tenant may not give notice of their desire to have the freehold or an extended lease by virtue of subsection (1) above later than two years after the grant of probate or letters of administration.
