Abstract

For the avoidance of doubt, this Act declares that the rule against perpetuities shall apply to future easements and such easements shall be void. The Act also stipulates that a covenant not to interfere with the exercise of rights which, if directly granted, would constitute an easement declared void under this Act, shall not be enforceable against a purchaser of land affected thereby.
