These Regulations amend the National Savings Stock Register Regulations 1976 to provide for an application to subscribe for stock to be made in any manner approved by the Director of Savings, and for the applicant to deliver to the Director such documents and other information in writing as he may require for the purpose of the application. Before this amendment, the Regulations made detailed provision requiring such an application to be made in writing or by use of a subscription book.
