2 Trusts in place of settlements.E+W
(1)No settlement created after the commencement of this Act is a settlement for the purposes of the M1Settled Land Act 1925; and no settlement shall be deemed to be made under that Act after that commencement.
(2)Subsection (1) does not apply to a settlement created on the occasion of an alteration in any interest in, or of a person becoming entitled under, a settlement which—
(a)is in existence at the commencement of this Act, or
(b)derives from a settlement within paragraph (a) or this paragraph.
(3)But a settlement created as mentioned in subsection (2) is not a settlement for the purposes of the Settled Land Act 1925 if provision to the effect that it is not is made in the instrument, or any of the instruments, by which it is created.
(4)Where at any time after the commencement of this Act there is in the case of any settlement which is a settlement for the purposes of the Settled Land Act 1925 no relevant property which is, or is deemed to be, subject to the settlement, the settlement permanently ceases at that time to be a settlement for the purposes of that Act.
