Commentary on provisions of the Act Schedule 15: Extinction of rights over land Amendments to registers of common land or town or village greens
Paragraph 8 makes provision for registers of common land or town or village greens to be updated to reflect the extinguishment under the Schedule of rights over such land. The Secretary of State must notify the commons registration authority where land registered as a common or as a town or village green within the Act limits is acquired for Phase One purposes or where rights are acquired, or restrictive covenants are imposed, in relation to such land for those purposes. The prescribed information to be given by the Secretary of State to the commons registration authority includes details of any exchange land to be given. The commons registration authority must then make any necessary consequential amendments to the relevant register.
