If you’re living on a piece of land and you give a notice or cross-notice to someone living on another piece of land nearby about fencing, something important can happen. This notice is about fencing work. If you or the other person moves away from your land before you both agree on what to do, or before a court decides what should happen, the notice you gave stops working. It doesn’t matter anymore. This rule helps make sure that the people talking about the fence are the ones who actually live there now.

Where a notice or cross-notice is duly given by the occupier of any land to the occupier of any other land in accordance with this Act, but, before the matter is settled (whether by agreement or order of the court), one of the parties disposes of his interest in either of the parcels of land concerned, the notice or cross-notice shall cease to have effect.
