(2) On the determination of a lease the local authority may from time to time let the right for such further term and on such conditions as the 1[Government] may approve.

(3) Every lease made under this section shall imply a condition of re-entry if at any time after the making thereof it is proved to the satisfaction of the 1[Government] that the lessee has practically discontinued the working of the tramway leased, or of any part thereof, for the space of one month without a reason sufficient, in the opinion of the 1[Government], to warrant the discontinuance.
