An updated edition that takes into account new developments since the previous edition was published in 1992, in particular the increased significance of environmental searches. The Law Society has stipulated that the buyer's solicitor must advise the client about potential liability for contaminated land; furthermore, the Land Registration Act 2002, due for implementation in 2003, will change land registration procedures in readiness for the introduction of e-conveyancing. All these changes will have an impact upon the process of conducting searches and enquiries making "Conveyancing Searches and Enquiries" a useful tool for residential and commercial conveyancing solicitors.
