The High Hedges (Scotland) Act 2013 (Supplementary Provision) Order 2014
This Order makes provision supplemental to the High Hedges (Scotland) Act 2013 (“the Act”). Under the Act, a local authority may register in the Land Register of Scotland or the General Register of Sasines a notice of liability for expenses incurred by the authority for action taken by them where there has been a failure to comply with a high hedge notice. Where the liability to which the notice of liability relates has been discharged the local authority must register a notice of discharge. This Order excludes the Keeper of the Registers of Scotland from liability for indemnity for losses arising in consequence of an inaccuracy in any information contained in a notice of liability for expenses or a notice of discharge registered under the Act.
