- Original (As enacted)
This is the original version (as it was originally enacted).
(1)The person making the disposition is not liable under the covenants implied by virtue of—
(a)section 2(1)(a) (right to dispose),
(b)section 3 (charges, incumbrances and third party rights), or
(c)section 4 (validity of lease),
in respect of any particular matter to which the disposition is expressly made subject.
(2)Furthermore that person is not liable under any of those covenants for anything (not falling within subsection (1))—
(a)which at the time of the disposition is within the actual knowledge, or
(b)which is a necessary consequence of facts that are then within the actual knowledge,
of the person to whom the disposition is made.
(3)For this purpose section 198 of the [1925 c. 20.] Law of Property Act 1925 (deemed notice by virtue of registration) shall be disregarded.
The benefit of a covenant implied by virtue of this Part shall be annexed and incident to, and shall go with, the estate or interest of the person to whom the disposition is made, and shall be capable of being enforced by every person in whom that estate or interest is (in whole or in part) for the time being vested.
(1)The operation of any covenant implied in an instrument by virtue of this Part may be limited or extended by a term of that instrument.
(2)Sections 81 and 83 of the [1925 c. 20.] Law of Property Act 1925 (effect of covenant with two or more jointly; construction of implied covenants) apply to a covenant implied by virtue of this Part as they apply to a covenant implied by virtue of that Act.
(3)Where in an instrument effecting or purporting to effect a disposition of property a person is expressed to direct the disposition, this Part applies to him as if he were the person making the disposition.
(4)This Part has effect—
(a)where “gyda gwarant teitl llawn” is used instead of “with full title guarantee”, and
(b)where “gyda gwarant teitl cyfyngedig” is used instead of “with limited title guarantee”,
as it has effect where the English words are used.
(1)Where a form set out in an enactment, or in an instrument made under an enactment, includes words which (in an appropriate case) would have resulted in the implication of a covenant by virtue of section 76 of the [1925 c. 20.] Law of Property Act 1925, the form shall be taken to authorise instead the use of the words “with full title guarantee” or “with limited title guarantee” or their Welsh equivalent given in section 8(4).
(2)This applies in particular to the forms set out in Schedule 1 to the [1925 c. 18.] Settled Land Act 1925 and Schedules 4 and 5 to the [1925 c. 20.] Law of Property Act 1925.
