condition has been fulfilled and that no further liability in 

 that respect attaches to the land. 



There do not appear to be any implied conditions at- 

 taching to land exceeding 640 acres other than those al- 

 ready mentioned, which are prescribed by Section 25 of the 

 Land Enactment. 



It is probable that in the next amendments to the 

 Enactment provision will be made for a new condition, 

 applicable to all lands exceeding 100 acres in extent, to the 

 effect that tk no portion of the land granted shall be used 

 for the cultivation of tapioca, or of any other product the 

 cultivation whereof may from time to time be pro- 

 hibited by rule;" any rights derived under grants issued 

 before the promulgation of such rule being reserved. 



All other conditions must be expressed in special 

 clauses, accepted by the grantee and endorsed on the grant 

 before this is signed by the Eesident. 



These special conditions may relate to cultivation, 

 rent, forfeiture or otherwise as the Resident, with the ap- 

 proval of the Resident-General, may direct in each case. 



Generally speaking, the special clause in a town grant 

 will be a building clause requiring a house of approved type 

 and specified value to be put up within a given time; in 

 agricultural grants, the special clauses will deal with right 

 of way and the prohibition of tapioca cultivation; and in 

 grants for areas exceeding 640 acres there will be a cul- 

 tivation clause, which will require, as a rule, the cultivation 

 of one-twentieth of the area granted in each year for a 

 period of five years. In Selangor, in respect of the coast 

 districts, there will be a clause providing for the payment 

 of a drainage assessment by estates affected by any system 

 of drainage carried out by the Government. The penalty 

 provided by law for failure to comply with any conditions, 

 whether expressed in the grants or implied by the Enact- 

 ment, is re-entry by the Collector, and the forfeiture of the 

 land to the Ruler of the State. (Section 5.) 



No re-entry can be made on the ground of any breach 

 of, or default in, the observance of any condition that may 

 be capable of being repaired or made good, until after notice 

 has been given to the defaulting party to repair or make 

 good such breach or default within the time stated in the 

 notice. If the notice is not complied with, the Collector 

 may then re-enter. Such resumx^tion, however, rarely 

 takes place except in cases of abandonment, or aggravated 

 cases of non-compliance with conditions.
