EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)


The Land Registration (Proper Office) Order 2003 designates particular offices of the land registry as the proper office for the receipt of specified descriptions of application under the Land Registration Act 2002 (2002 c.9). The Order does not apply to, amongst other applications, an application to the registrar delivered in accordance with a written agreement as to delivery made between the registrar and the applicant's conveyancer. This Order amends the definition of "conveyancer" in article 2(2) of the Land Registration (Proper Office) Order 2003 to include a certificated notary public.
