Liability of Vendor to

Discharge Land

Purchase Annuity

The Conveyancing Committee has

been requested to indicate the rec-

ommended practice in relation to

the discharge of Land Purchase An-

nuities in the light of the provisions

of General Condition 16 of the cur-

rent Incorporated Law Society of

Ireland General Conditions of Sale.

General Condition 16 provides:

Subject to Condition 15, the

purchaser shall be deemed to buy:

(a) w i th full notice of the actual

state and condition of the

subject property,

and

(b) subject to (i) all leases (if any)

mentioned in the Particulars or

in the Special Conditions and

(ii) all rights of way, water, light,

drainage and other easements,

rights, reservations, privileges,

liabilities, covenants, fents, out-

goings and all incidents of tenure.

The Committee is of the view

that a land Purchase Annuity is a

charge and does not come within

the terms of General Condition

16(b). Accordingly, the Committee

recommends that in the absence of

a Special Condition to the contrary,

it is the Vendor's liability to Discharge

the Land purchase Annuity affect-

ing the property in sale.
