C8C4I1C6123C4C6 Inhibition of property affected by order

1

On the application of the F1prosecutor, the court may, in relation to the property mentioned in subsection (2), grant warrant for inhibition against any person specified in a restraint order.

2

That property is the heritable realisable property to which the restraint order applies (whether generally or such of it as is specified in the application).

3

The warrant for inhibition—

a

has effect as if granted on the dependence of an action for debt by the F3prosecutor against the person and may be executed, recalled, loosed or restricted accordingly, and

F4b

must forthwith be registered by the prosecutor in the Register of Inhibitions

4

Section 155 of the Titles to Land Consolidation (Scotland) Act 1868 (c. 101) (effective date of inhibition) applies in relation to an inhibition for which warrant is granted under subsection (1) F5....

5

The execution of an inhibition under this section in respect of property does not prejudice the exercise of an administrator’s powers under or for the purposes of this Part in respect of that property.

6

An inhibition executed under this section ceases to have effect when, or in so far as, the restraint order ceases to apply in respect of the property in relation to which the warrant for inhibition was granted.

7

If an inhibition ceases to have effect to any extent by virtue of subsection (6) the F2 prosecutor must—

a

apply for the recall or, as the case may be, the restriction of the inhibition, and

b

ensure that the recall or restriction is reflected in the Register of Inhibitions and Adjudications.
