The Minister answered my question in legal terms—I am not surprised about that. He talked about an executor. I am asking whether subsection (3) covers the disposal of premises—I do not know whether “disposal” is a particular term that relates only to probate matters—when a property is just sold to another person, or someone who is not living on the premises rents the property to another person. What is the difference between subsection (3) and subsection (1)? I guess that it is to do with refusing permission. If the Minister could clarify the meaning of that in normal life, I would be grateful. If I have not made my question clear, I would be happy to discuss it with him outside the Committee, if that would be convenient to the Committee.
