The fees to be charged and taken in the Land Registry in proceedings under the Act of 1964 shall be in accordance with this Order and the Schedule thereto and all such fees shall be payable in cash, or by means of Land Registry stamps, banker's draft, money order, postal order or cheque drawn to the order of the Registrar, provided that in any particular case the Registrar may decline to accept payment by cheque. 5. No registration shall be made and no other transaction shall be done or completed until the appropriate fee has been paid in accordance with Article 4 of this Order. 6. Where, on a transfer on sale, the whole or part of the purchase money is secured by way of a charge or lien for unpaid purchase money, full fees shall, on registration of the transferee, be chargeable on the full amount of the purchase money. 7. Where a transfer or assent creates charges for the repayment of moneys advanced on the property transferred or vested by the assent, as the case may be, or where such charges on the property are lodged at the same time as the transfer or assent, half fees only shall be chargeable for the registration of such charges. 8. Where a transfer, will or assent creates charges (otherwise than in repayment of moneys advanced) or burdens on the property transferred, devised or vested by the assent, as the case may be, or where a transfer or assent and an instrument creating charges (otherwise than in repayment of moneys advanced) or burdens are lodged at the same time, no fees shall be chargeable for the registration of such charges or burdens. 9.

Nothing in this Order shall authorise the charging of a fee for any registration or transaction that is required by statutory enactment to be made or done free of charge. 11. No fee exceeding £200 shall be charged in any one proceeding. | ||||||||||||||||||||
