Subdivision lots primarily intended for, or devoted to, agricultural purposes shall not exceed an area of five hectares for coconut lands, ten hectares for improved abaca lands, and twelve hectares for unimproved lands; urban homesite or residential lots shall not exceed an area of one thousand square meters: Provided, That any provision of law to the contrary notwithstanding, the Department of General Services shall determine the minimum size of said urban homesites or residential lots and shall allot said lots to the actual occupants thereof at the time of the approval of this Act."
