a freehold estate is an example of an earlier act that is the creation of a proprietary interest in land and a later act that is the creation of a larger proprietary interest in land.

Other extensions, and developments, of earlier acts
 (9) Subject to subsection (10), an act (the later act) that takes place on or after 1 January 1994 is a past act if:
 (a) the later act would be a past act under subsection (2) if that subsection were not limited in its application to acts taking place before a particular day; and
 (b) an act (the earlier act) that is a past act because of any subsection of this section took place before the later act; and
 (c) the earlier act contained or conferred a reservation, condition, permission or authority under which the whole or part of the land or waters to which the earlier act related was to be used at a later time for a particular purpose (for example, a reservation for forestry purposes); and
 (d) the later act is done in good faith under or in accordance with the reservation, condition, permission or authority (for example, the issue in good faith of a licence to take timber under a reservation for forestry purposes); and
 (e) the later act is not the making, amendment or repeal of legislation.
