(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order amends Schedule 1A to the Title Conditions (Scotland) Act 2003 (“the 2003 Act”). Schedule 1A sets out the form of notice of potential liability for costs for the purposes of section 10(2A) of the 2003 Act. Schedule 1A was inserted into the 2003 Act by paragraph 20 of Schedule 4 to the Tenements (Scotland) Act 2004. A notice under section 10(2A) may be registered in respect of maintenance or work irrespective of whether that maintenance or work is carried out before or after the registration of the notice. This order amends the form of the notice set out in Schedule 1A to reflect this.
