UPDATED! CON29DW Drainage and Water Enquiries
In order to reflect legislative and industry change, the Law Society, in conjunction with the Drainage and Water Searches Network (DWSN), have developed a commercial drainage and water enquiry (CON29DW Commercial). This development has created a standardised enquiry that validates valuable information regarding, inter alia, wayleaves and easements. Accordingly, the ‘existing’ CON29DW, should now be used for residential enquiries only whilst the new CON29DW Com will be used for commercial enquiries.
5 June 2020
UPDATED! TA6 Property information form
The Law Society has updated TA6 and the accompanying guidance notes. Please review the updated guidance notes for all changes, however The Law Society advises that the changes deal with updated guidance from the Government about the discharge of septic tanks into surface water.
TA6 Property Information Form (4th edition 2020 - second revision) 700005 6/20
TA6(N) Law Society Property Information Form (TA6) - Explanatory Notes for Sellers and Buyers 700003 6/20

UPDATED! TA6 Property information form

TA6 Property information form (4th edition) 2/20
TA6(N) Law Society Property Information Form (TA6) - Explanatory Notes for Sellers and Buyers 2/20
The Law Society advises that changes to the Japanese knotweed question include:
- Highlighting that information ought to be provided to a buyer if the seller is aware that there is a treatment plan in place
- Rewording the introduction to better explain what knotweed is
- Largely replacing ‘eradication’ with ‘managing its regrowth’ given the nature of knotweed
- Guidance notes now refer to knotweed within 3 metres of a property rather than using the current 7 metres adopted by most surveyors which has come under criticism as being overly cautious and causing a significant number of properties to be otherwise ’blighted’.
3 May 2019
UPDATED! TA13 Completion Information and Undertakings (Third Edition)

Message from the Law Society re CON 29 and CON 29O forms release date
The Law Society is currently updating the CON29 and CON 29O enquiry forms.
We understand that it is important for solicitors, local authorities and others to know when the new forms will be introduced so that you can plan budgets, resources and system changes accordingly.
In February, we said that we were aiming to launch the new forms in October 2014. We also said that we would keep all respondents updated about any changes to this proposed launch date.
We are keen to ensure that the new forms and the changes made to the forms are practicable. That is why we consulted the profession, local authorities and other key stakeholders in 2013. Following the publication of the consultation response, it was necessary to undertake further discussions with software developers, local authorities and others to ensure that the new forms were fit for purpose.
As a result of those further discussions, it has become necessary to delay the introduction of the new forms. We hope that the new forms will be launched in April 2015.
New enquiries - interim position
Some new enquiries have been added to the forms, eg community infrastructure levy (CIL) and assets of community value. While the forms will not go live yet, if solicitors wish to raise enquiries about these matters now, they should follow the format of the enquiry on the form to make it easier for respondents to answer.
Not all local authorities will have a CIL charging schedule. Solicitors may therefore wish to check the local authority's website for further information about whether a charging schedule is in place before raising enquiries about CIL.
Guidance
We are currently working on producing guidance notes to accompany the forms and propose to publish these to coincide with the introduction of the new forms.
