A tenant shall not be entitled to compensation under section 16 of this Act in respect of any tenant’s improvement unless the landlord has given his consent in writing to the provision of the tenant’s improvement.
Any such consent may be given in the instrument creating the tenancy or elsewhere.
Any such consent may be given either unconditionally or on condition that the tenant agrees to a specified variation in the terms of the tenancy.
The variation referred to in subsection (3) above must be related to the tenant’s improvement in question.
This section does not apply in any case where the tenant’s improvement consists of planning permission.
