### sec.176 Termination of other tenancies
This section applies to a tenancy other than—
a periodic tenancy; or
a tenancy for a fixed term if the fixed term has not expired; or
a tenancy for which a period of notice has expressly or impliedly been agreed to by the parties.
A party to the tenancy may terminate the tenancy on a stated day (the termination day ) by giving a termination notice to the other party a reasonable period before the termination day.
For subsection (2) , whether a period is reasonable depends on all of the circumstances, including, for example—
the nature of the tenancy; and
the circumstances surrounding the creation of the tenancy; and
the terms of the tenancy; and
any implications arising from the agreement of the parties.
