News - Local Land Charges Register

The Government has concluded that charging a fee for a personal search of the Local Land Charge Register is incompatible with the Environmental Information Regulations 2004(EIR) and the underlying 2003 EU Directive. Following this conclusion the Government is revoking the current £22.00 fee by amending the Local Land Charges Rules 1977. 

The amendment will come into force on the 17th August 2010 and Wychavon District Council will cease to charge this fee with effect from that date.

Information contained in the Register which is now deemed to fall under the Enviornmental Information Regulations will now be available to view from 17 August 2010 within My Local Area on our Web Site.
