Additional Information

1.0 Calculating

1.1 Cut up preambles which will be in the yellow basket on SO2 work area.

1.2 Take deeds out of the secure cupboard.

1.3 Check preamble against front of deed and registration requirements of deed to make sure the correct docquet is added (D for Preservation) (D/E for Preservation and Execution). 

1.4 Glue preamble to left hand side of backing sheet. A backing sheet should be attached to all deeds.

1.5 Indicate on right hand bottom corner how may extracts are required (if only one is required this does not need to be marked).

1.7 Make up into bundles of approx 70 pages depending on amount of extracts required and put in a plastic bag.

1.8 Complete a waybill, ensuring running number is correct. The white copy stays in CAJR and is put aside in yellow basket until the deeds are returned from copy services for assembly. The yellow copy travels with the deeds in the bags and a number to correspond with the number on the waybill should be visible on the front of the bag.

1.9 Put plans in plans folder which is located on the SO2 back desk remembering to take note of deed numbers and how many copies are recorded on the sheet provided until assembly. These should run in numerical order.

1.10 Put LBTT forms in folder to be attached to invoices making sure to add a post it note with date of deeds on it also in numerical order.

1.11 Make sure pages are numbered up correctly.
