Section 49 – Creation of statutory pledge over added property
227.This section provides for the creation of the security over property added to a statutory pledge.
228.It has the same effect for property added to a pledge by an amendment document as section 48 has for property identified in the constitutive document. See paragraphs 223 and 224 of these Notes.
229.Subsection (3) sets out that subsection (2)(b) is subject to section 92 of the Act (dealing with ineffective registration). It has comparable effect to section 48(3) in that registration only counts if it is effective. However, in this case it is matters relating to the amendment which are relevant. As such, registration is ineffective if the entry in the statutory pledges record does not include a copy of the amendment document, the amendment document is invalid, or, as a result of the amendment, the entry has an inaccuracy which is seriously misleading.
230.Subsection (4) sets out that this section is subject to section 50 of the Act (dealing with insolvency). It has the same effect as section 48(4) of the Act (see paragraph 226 of these Notes).
