Practice Note Section 72 Declarations: Secretarial Companies

Joint Committee of Irish Building Societies Association and the Law Society This Committee was set up in 1979 and consists of representatives nominated by the Law Society and by the Law Agents of the Building Society. The object of the Committee is to resolve conveyancing difficulties which may arise between practitioners in dealing with mortgages, and to standardise the practice in dealing with this aspect of conveyancing work. The Committee will arbitrate on differences referred to it by practitioners and will issue recommendations. Practitioners or Bar Associations wishing to have matters considered by the Joint Committee should furnish details of the problem to the Joint Committee, c/o The Law Society, with a detailed account of the problem that has arisen. The Committee meets once a month in Blackhall Place. The membership of the Committee comprises:— Law Society Representatives:- Jean Cullen, Brian Gartland, Rory McEntee, Rory O'Donnell. Building Society Representatives:- Brendan McDonnell, Chairman, (Educational Building Society), Violet O'Mahony (First National Building Society), John Lynch (Irish Civil Service Building Society), Frank O'Flynn (Irish Permanent Building Society), Eamonn Greene (Irish Permanent Building Society), Eileen Howell (Irish Nationwide Building Society). •

The Conveyancing Committee was asked to give a view on the acceptability of a Section 72 Declaration made by an individual as secretary of a secretarial company which in turn was the secretary of the land owning company. The Committee's view was that a Section 72 Declaration could properly be made by a director as the secretary of a secretarial company in such circumstances. •
