    "content": "Just to mention a few, one area I found to be a little bit confusing and contradicting is the issue of termination of tenancy without reference to the tribunal. Clause (25)(1) (a) states: “(1) A landlord shall be entitled to terminate a tenancy without reference to the Tribunal upon the following grounds that – (a) the landlord has given prior notice of not less than 24 months in the case of business premises, and not less than 12 months in the case of residential premises.” I stand to be corrected, because I know that most residential leases as they stand go for one year renewable depending on the mutual agreement between the tenant and the landlord. When terminating a residential tenancy, we are talking of 12 months and this, by itself, is contradicting. In my opinion, I feel that the 24 and 12 months respectively, termination notice by the landlord for commercial and residential tenancy is too long. In my view, it should be reduced to three months for residential and six months for commercial."
