Abstract

At the end of section 26 a provision is added regarding the consent of a Land Board to transfer of rights in land. Such consent is not required in the case of sale in execution to a citizen of Botswana. Section 28 is here renewed. That section concerns the cancellation of grant and recovery of possession by the Land Board in the case of breach of development covenant or unauthorised change of user. The Second Schedule contains the description of an area prescribed as tribal area in the sense of section 2 of the principal Act.
