Extent: S

(This note is not part of the Scheme)
These Regulations revoke and replace the Crofters etc Building Grants (Scotland) Regulations 1990. The Regulations relate to provision by the Scottish Ministers of assistance by way of grant towards the erection, improvement or rebuilding of dwellinghouses for crofters and certain other occupiers of land in the crofting counties.
The Regulations prescribe the conditions to be observed with respect to dwellinghouses so long as any grant is outstanding and provides for recovery of the grant in the event of a breach of conditions. The maximum period for which the conditions apply in the case of erection of a house has been reduced from 20 years to 15 years. The period for which the conditions apply in the case of rebuilding or improvements to an existing croft will now be 10 years. The Regulations also prescribe the form of notices to be recorded or registered in the Register of Sasines or Land Register of Scotland.
