*K*r* | Confirmed - to be retained upon completion (TP/TA only) |

NOTE:
Only Confirmed Applications can have their status appended with an indicator of:
- *r to denote if the application is to be retained ( only for TPs/TAs ) or
- *n if a Public Next Application Note is to be generated (except TP/TA).
Attached/Related Application Codes
N.B. The letters shown against any Application may change depending on which Application in the list is being viewed. The Application being viewed is indicated by an * next to its entry in the Att/Rel Apps. box. The first letter denotes the relationship to the Title (this is viewed within the Applications affecting the Title).
First Letter | Second Letter | |||
M | Master of the current set of Applications | m | master | |
A | Attached to the current set's Master | a | attached | |
P | Applications against the Parent Title | |||
T | Transfers out of this Title | |||
U | Unattached to the current set (See Note 1) | |||
L | Link to Shared Plot |
Therefore the two letters need to be read together to get all combinations e.g. :-
Um | This is a case which is not attached to any other Application but is related to the Application being viewed. |
Ua | This is an Application which is not attached to the Application being viewed but is attached to another Application |
Tm | This is a TP which is a Master Application |
NOTE:
1. Any Application marked "+U" signifies that this is an Application to be attached.
2. M and A should really be shown as Mm and Aa according to these rules but are shortened.

Occasionally confirmations will be give for Applications containing Securities by individuals acting on behalf of a Limited company i.e. major ownership schemes.This service is given in order that the Solicitor can register the deed with the Registrar of Companies within the 21 day period of its creation. |
2 | CONFIRMATION OF A DEED OF CONDITIONS | Applies when a Deed of Conditions is registered against a Builders Title (for definition see no. 5 below) and TP's out of this Title are imminent. This service is given so that the Solicitor can correctly refer, in their Breakaway Deeds, to the Deed of Conditions for burdens. |
3 | REGISTRATION IN BOOKS OF COUNCIL AND SESSION | Applies when a Deed requires to be registered in both the Land Register and the Books of Council and Session.

The following types of casework should be directed to Registration Services:- Developing Titles where the extent would imply a major development.Inner city developments such as major shopping centres, redevelopment sites. Transfers of large areas/housing estates (Development Corporations, Scot. Homes etc.).Consolidations, Absorptions (Minutes of Consolidation, Renunciations of leases).
