#### 81A Approval of dealings in future interests etc. (1) Where 2 or more persons enter into a dealing relating to a title that may come into existence in the future and that dealing would, if the title came into existence, become a dealing to which section 81 applies, a person who is a party to the dealing may, during the prescribed period in relation to the title, lodge with the Designated Authority: (a) in a case where the dealing relates to only one title that may come into existence in the future, a provisional application in writing for approval by the Designated Authority of the dealing; or (b) in any other case, a separate provisional application in writing for approval by the Designated Authority of the dealing in relation to each title that may come into existence in the future and to which the dealing relates. (2) Subsections 81(4), (7) and (8) apply to a provisional application lodged under subsection (1) of this section as if that provisional application were an application lodged under subsection 81(3). (3) Where: (a) the title to which a dealing referred to in subsection (1) relates comes into existence; and (b) upon that title coming into existence, the dealing becomes a dealing to which section 81 applies; the provisional application lodged under subsection (1) in relation to the dealing shall be treated as if it were an application lodged under subsection 81(3) on the day on which that title came into existence. (4) A reference in subsection (1) to the prescribed period, in relation to a title, is a reference to the period: (a) commencing: (i) in the case of a permit, lease, licence, infrastructure licence or pipeline licence—on the day of service of an instrument informing the applicant for the permit, lease, licence, infrastructure licence or pipeline licence that the Joint Authority is prepared to grant the permit, lease, licence, infrastructure licence or pipeline licence; or (ii) in the case of an access authority—on the day on which the application for the grant of the access authority is made; and (b) ending on the day on which the title comes into existence.
