EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)

These rules amend the Commonhold (Land Registration) Rules 2004 (the principal rules) as a consequence of amendments made to the Commonhold and Leasehold Reform Act 2002 (2002 c.15) by the Companies Act 2006 (Consequential Amendments, Transitional Provisions and Savings) Order 2009 (S.I. 2009/1941).

Rules 3, 4, 5 and 6 of these rules amend rules 4 (lodging a copy document), 19 (registration of an altered memorandum or articles of association), 23 (registration of a successor commonhold association) and 28 (completion of application for registration) of the principal rules to refer to "articles" instead of "memorandum and articles" and "memorandum or articles". Rule 7 of these rules amends three of the forms prescribed by the principal rules - Form CM1 (application to register a freehold estate in commonhold land), Form CM3 (application for the registration of an amended commonhold community statement and/or altered memorandum and articles of association) and Form CM6 (application for registration of a successor commonhold association) - again to refer to "articles" instead of "memorandum and articles".

An impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no significant impact on the private or voluntary sectors is foreseen.
