Answer and explanation

Correct answer D

Section 113 addresses acts showing an intention to treat the lease as subsisting, with the express or implied consent of the recipient. Illustration (b) states that a second notice given to the occupant as lessee waives the first notice.

Option feedback

Option A

The illustration treats the first notice as waived, rather than maintaining both.

Option B

The second notice is the act indicating the continued tenancy; it is not ineffective merely for being second.

Option C

The first notice is waived, so it is not the sole effective notice.

Option D

This is exactly the result in section 113 illustration(b).
