(2) Any such rent, covenant or provision shall be capable of being recovered, received, enforced and taken advantage of, by the person from time to time entitled, subject to the term, to the income of the whole or of any part as the case may require, of the land leased.

(4) This section shall apply to leases made before or after the commencement of this Act, but shall not affect the operation of— (a) any severance of the reversionary estate; or (b) any acquisition by conveyance or otherwise of the right to receive or enforce any rent, covenant or provision— effected before the commencement of the **Property Law Act 1928**.
