Commentary on Sections Part 4: Advance Notices Section 62: Removal of advance notice etc.
165.This section instructs the Keeper to remove an advance notice from the application record and add it to the archive record where the protected period has ended. Subsection (2) allows Scottish Ministers to make rules relaxing this obligation in certain circumstances. This covers the situation where the advance notice has resulted in the Keeper mapping a new property but the notice has lapsed before the deed is registered. It means the Keeper need not delete the mapping work while there is the possibility it will still be required in the near future.
