The Regulatory Reform (Execution of Deeds and Documents) Order 2005 is a statutory instrument applicable in England and Wales which was issued by the Lord Chancellor and signed by Baroness Catherine Ashton, then a minister in the Department of Constitutional Affairs. It reformed the legislation governing the execution of deeds and documents in order to standardise the formal requirements for companies, corporations and individuals.[1]
It made amendments to the Law of Property Act 1925, the Companies Act 1985 and the Law of Property (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1989.[1]
Like other England and Wales Regulatory Reform Orders, it was made through the exercise of powers available under the Regulatory Reform Act 2001.[1]
