3.—(1) Sub-paragraph (2) applies where the reversioner has given a counter-notice complying with section 21(2)(a) (admitting the right to collective enfranchisement) or a further counter-notice, or, if no such counter-notice or further counter-notice is given, the nominee purchaser has applied to the court for an order under section 25(1) (applications where reversioner fails to give counter-notice or further counter-notice).

(2) Subject to paragraph 5, the nominee purchaser may require the reversioner to deduce title to the interests proposed to be acquired in accordance with section 13(3)(a) and (c)(i) (matters specified in the initial notice) and to any interest in relation to which the reversioner has made proposals in accordance with section 21(3)(b) and (c) (matters specified in counter-notice), or to any less extensive interest which it has been agreed or determined by a leasehold valuation tribunal will be acquired, by giving him notice.

(3) The reversioner shall comply with any such requirement by giving the nominee purchaser —

(a) in the case of an interest registered in the register of title kept at Her Majesty’s Land Registry, all particulars and information which have to be given or may be required to be given on a sale of registered land pursuant to section 110 of the Land Registration Act 1925(1) (provisions as between vendor and purchaser), and
