It gives a detailed explanation of how practitioners should re-organize their systems and procedures to accommodate the new provisions. It also provides a set of forms, precedents, clauses and other relevant documentation, including an authorized guarantee agreement, overriding lease, rent review clause and alienation covenant.;The guide should be of interest to all practitioners involved with commercial conveyancing, surveyors, mortgage providers and students of landlord and tenant law.
