”;
(ii) for sub-paragraphs (b) and (c) there shall be substituted the following sub-paragraphs:—“
(b) in respect of continuously maintained leys, the values specified in sub-paragraph (a) above shall be increased by £8 per hectare for each additional growing season over three growing seasons for which the leys have been established, but such increase shall not exceed a total of £48 per hectare if any herbage was cut and removed during the last growing season before the termination of the tenancy and shall not exceed a total of £64 per hectare if the herbage was, during the last growing season, grazed only;

(c) in respect of any former ley where the first crop which has been sown in the last growing season before the termination of the tenancy has not been removed from the ground, the value shall be the value specified in sub-paragraphs (a) and (b) above according to the period for which the ley had been established before it was ploughed or otherwise destroyed and to whether the herbage was cut and removed, or grazed only, in the last growing season before the ley was ploughed or otherwise destroyed;”
