Section 65

Nothing in this Act shall prejudice or interfere with the rights or remedies of any owner for the breach, non-observance or non-performance of any covenant or contract entered into by a tenant or lessee in reference to any dwelling-house in respect of which an order is made by the Commissioner under this Part.

If any owner is obliged to take possession of any dwelling-house in order to comply with any such order, the taking possession shall not affect his right to avail himself of any such breach, non-observance or non-performance that has occurred prior to his so taking possession.[66
