PART 4Miscellaneous

Further amendment of registers under Schedule 3 to the 2006 Act42

1

A 2014 registration authority may, subject to regulation 41(5), amend its registers after the end of the transitional period in consequence of a qualifying event, pursuant to an application made before or after the end of that period.

2

Where, after the end of the transitional period, a right of common is registered in consequence of a qualifying event, paragraph 3 of Schedule 3 to the 2006 Act is to be treated as not having applied to that right of common.

3

An original registration authority may, subject to paragraphs (4) to (6), amend its registers in consequence of a qualifying event (as described in paragraph 2(2) of Schedule 3 to the 2006 Act) pursuant to an application made to that authority.

4

For the purposes of determining an application made for the purposes of Schedule 3 to the 2006 Act to amend a register to record the severance of a right of common from land to which it was attached, a right of common attached to land is not to be treated as having been severed from that land in consequence of a qualifying event, unless the determining authority is satisfied that the severance was lawful and—

a

there is documentary evidence showing that the parties to the transaction or disposition which is a qualifying event intended the transaction or disposition to have the effect of severing the right of common; or

b

there is evidence that the right of common has been treated since the qualifying event as having been severed.

5

The determining authority may not determine that a register entry should be amended if it considers that, by reason of reliance reasonably placed on the register by a person since 1st October 2011, it would be unfair to do so.

6

Where a right of common is registered in consequence of a qualifying event, paragraph 3 of Schedule 3 to the 2006 Act is to be treated as not having applied to that right of common.
