Section 879 Charges which have to be registered: supplementaryC1
United Kingdom
A charge on land, for the purposes of section 878(7)(a), includes a charge created by a heritable security within the meaning of section 9(8) of the Conveyancing and Feudal Reform (Scotland) Act 1970 (c. 35).
The holding of debentures entitling the holder to a charge on land is not, for the purposes of section 878(7)(a), deemed to be an interest in land.
It is immaterial for the purposes of this Chapter where land subject to a charge is situated.
The deposit by way of security of a negotiable instrument given to secure the payment of book debts is not, for the purposes of section 878(7)(b)(vii), to be treated as a charge on those book debts.
References in this Chapter to the date of the creation of a charge are—
in the case of a floating charge, the date on which the instrument creating the floating charge was executed by the company creating the charge, and
in any other case, the date on which the right of the person entitled to the benefit of the charge was constituted as a real right.
