Section 29
Section 29
Saving for other relevant legislation
(1)
Nothing in this Act removes or restricts the effect of, or prevents reliance upon, any contractual provision which —
is authorised or required by the express terms or necessary implication of an enactment; or
being made with a view to compliance with an international agreement to which Singapore is a party, does not operate more restrictively than is contemplated by the agreement.
