BLM74650 - Schedule 12 FA 1997: Part II: second condition - material difference


A further condition which has to be satisfied before the second requirement (see BLM74640) is met is that the contract in its final from is not 'materially different' from the contract as it stood when it was made. This is largely a question of fact. But you should not accept that changes to the contract intended to take a lease which would have otherwise come within FA97/Sch12 Part I outside those provisions are non-'material'.
