22.(1) Where under or by virtue of any provision contained in section nineteen
of this Act the Ministry has given to an occupier of agricultural land a
direction relating to any of the matters specified in paragraphs (b), (c) or
(d) of sub-section (4) of section nineteen of this Act and that occupier
satisfies the Ministry that any other person had, before such direction was
given, acquired by virtue of any conacre or agistment agreement any right to
crop or till the land or to graze or pasture livestock thereon, the Ministry
shall serve the like direction on that other person and it shall,
notwithstanding anything in that conacre or agistment agreement, be the duty
of that other person to comply with the direction so far as it relates to the
land over which he has acquired such right and if he refuses or neglects to do
so or acts in contravention of the direction he shall, in lieu of the
occupier, be liable on summary conviction under sub-section (1) of section
twenty of this Act to a fine not exceeding one hundred pounds and the occupier
shall cease to be liable in respect of so much of the direction as relates to
such last-mentioned land.

(2) Where under or by virtue of any provision contained in section twenty-one
of this Act or in any order made under that section the Ministry has given to
an occupier of agricultural land a direction relating to any of the matters
specified in paragraphs (b), (c) or (d) of sub-section (4) of section nineteen
of this Act and that occupier satisfies the Ministry that any other person
had, before such direction was given, acquired by virtue of any conacre or
agistment agreement any right to crop or till the land or to graze or pasture
livestock thereon, the Ministry shall serve the like direction on that other
person and it shall, notwithstanding anything in that conacre or agistment
agreement, be the duty of that other person to comply with the direction so
far as it relates to the land over which he has acquired such right and if he
refuses or neglects to do so or acts in contravention of the direction he
shall, in lieu of the occupier, be liable on summary conviction under
sub-section (3) of section twenty-one of this Act to a fine not exceeding one
hundred pounds or to imprisonment for a term not exceeding six months or to
both such fine and such imprisonment and the occupier shall cease to be liable
in respect of so much of the direction as relates to such last-mentioned land.

(3) Save as provided by the last two preceding sub-sections an occupier of any
agricultural land shall be treated as such for the purposes of this Part of
this Act notwithstanding that any right to crop or till that land or to graze
or pasture livestock thereon is exercisable by any other person under or by
virtue of any conacre or agistment agreement.

(4) If the owner or occupier of any agricultural land enters into any conacre
or agistment agreement authorising some other person to use that land for a
