Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order amends the Title Conditions (Scotland) Act 2003 (Rural Housing Bodies) Order 2004 by adding five bodies to the Schedule which lists bodies that are prescribed as rural housing bodies. A rural housing body is a body in favour of whom it is competent to create a rural housing burden comprising a right of pre emption under section 43(1) of the Title Conditions (Scotland) Act 2003. Section 43(6) provides that a body may be prescribed as a rural housing body only if it has as its object or function (or, as the case may be, one of its principal objects or functions) the provision of housing on rural land or the provision of such land for housing. The Scottish Ministers are satisfied that all five bodies referred to in the Schedule to this Order comply with this requirement.
