This Order amends the Title Conditions (Scotland) Act 2003 (Rural Housing Bodies) Order 2004 by adding four bodies to the Schedule which lists bodies that are prescribed as rural housing bodies. A rural housing body is a body in favour of whom it is competent to create a rural housing burden comprising a right of pre emption under section 43(1) of the Title Conditions (Scotland) Act 2003. Section 43(6) provides that a body may be classified as a Rural Housing Body only if it has as its object or function (or, as the case may be, one of its principal objects or functions) the power to provide housing or land for housing. All four bodies contained in the Schedule comply with this requirement.
2003 asp 9. Section 43 was amended by section 25 of, and paragraph 12 of Schedule 4 to, the Tenements (Scotland) Act 2004 (asp 11).
