English translation of the principle

Industrial plots are considered State assets forming part of its private property. Their subjection to the rules of private law. Dealings concerning them are conducted in the same manner as dealings between individuals. If the allottee assigns the industrial plot and the competent authority approves, the first operator's contract necessarily terminates, and consequently the sub-investment contract granted by him terminates, being a contract over the right of this operator which ceased to exist upon the cessation of his right. The reason for this.
Arabic original
القسائم الصناعية تعتبر من أموال الدولة التي تدخل في ملكها الخاص. خضوعها لأحكام القانون الخاص. يجرى التعامل في شأنها على ذات النسق الذي يجرى به التعامل بين الأفراد. في حالة تنازل المخصص له عن القسيمة الصناعية و موافقة الجهة المختصة ينقضي حتماً عقد المستغل الأول و بالتالي ينقضي عقد الاستثمار من الباطن الصادر منه والذي يقع على حق هذا المستغل الذي انعدم بانعدام حقه. علة ذلك.
