408Replacement loansU.K.
This section has no associated Explanatory Notes

(1)This section applies to a replacement loan.

(2)In subsection (1) “replacement loan” means a loan to which section 392, 396, 398 or 401 applies because the loan is used in repaying another loan (“the replaced loan”) to which that section applies.

(3)This Chapter, except for sections 385 and 386, applies to the replacement loan as if that loan and the replaced loan were a single loan (subject to subsection (5)).

(4)Accordingly, any restriction under section 406 (effect of recovery of capital in the case of some loans) which applies to the replaced loan applies to the replacement loan.

(5)But this Chapter, except for sections 385 and 386, applies as if references to the use of the loan were references to the use of the original loan.
