Part 7: Conservation Covenants Section 130: Discharge or modification of obligation by Upper Tribunal
Section 130 gives effect to Schedule 18, which makes provision about the discharge or modification of an obligation under a conservation covenant on application to the Upper Tribunal.
	An application for discharge or modification may, in some circumstances, be found useful as a response to proceedings brought to enforce an obligation under a conservation covenant. Subsection (2) gives a person who is the subject of enforcement proceedings the right to apply to the High Court or the county court for an order giving permission to apply to the Upper Tribunal and suspending the enforcement proceedings in the meantime.
	Subsection (3) provides that an application cannot be made under section 84(1) of the Law of Property Act 1925 to discharge or modify an obligation under a conservation covenant. This ensures that obligations under a conservation covenant are modified or discharged by the Lands Chamber of the Upper Tribunal only on the basis designed for conservation covenants.
