Title Conditions (Scotland) Act 2003

Section 41: Completion of title

186.Where title to enforce a conservation burden passes to a successor body on the reorganisation of that body the new holder can complete its title as holder of the burden under section 41. Standard cases are likely to be the assumption by a conservation body of new trustees or a reorganisation of a body by statute. The appropriate conveyancing procedure is then to use a notice of title, and paragraph (a) allows this. A notice of title is unnecessary in the case of conservation burdens registered in the Land Register (see section 3(6) of the Land Registration (Scotland) Act 1979 (as amended by schedule 14, paragraph 7(3) of this Act)). Paragraph (b) allows an unregistered holder to grant assignations and discharges. Section 15(3) of the 1979 Act (as amended by schedule 14, paragraph 7(6) of this Act) dispenses with deduction of title in cases where the conservation burden is registered in the Land Register, but otherwise deduction of title is necessary.
