S18.19.1 Deeds that Contain Erroneous References to Finance Act Certificate or Exempt Instrument Regulations Certificate
Question: What will the Keeper do if presented with a deed, accompanied by the appropriate certificate, that erroneously includes a Finance Act clause or reference to the Exempt Instrument Regulations?
Answer: The Keeper will not refuse to accept a deed for recording or registration containing such a clause or reference provided the deed is accompanied by the appropriate certificate in terms of the Finance Act 2003. The reference in the deed to the Finance Act or Exempt Instrument Regulations will be treated as pro non scripto.
