The Local Land Charges Section has a statutory duty under the Local Land Charges Act 1975 to maintain the Local Land Charges Register.

A Local Land Charge is a restriction or prohibition on a particular parcel or parcels of land which is then binding on successive owners or occupiers of the parcel or parcels of land.

Therefore a Local Land Charge Search of the Register is required to inform a purchaser of the existence of any matters affecting the property or land.
