Postponement of permitted increase where repairs effected by tenant
If the tenant of any premises has since 16 August 1945, with the consent of the landlord of such premises, effected repairs thereto which were necessary to render the said premises reasonably habitable and the sum expended by such tenant has amounted to the equivalent of not less than the standard rent of such premises for a period of 6 months, that portion of the rent permitted under section 10(1) which exceeds the standard rent shall not commence to accrue or become payable or recoverable until such time as the amount thereof would, but for this provision, have been equal to one-half of the amount expended by the tenant on such repairs.
