Notification No. 644

Notification of a person, body or fund

What this is

Notification No. 644 was published on 14 December 1971. Its subject is Notification of a person, body or fund.

This notifies a named person, body, fund or instrument for the purpose of a provision. Nothing in it changes the provision itself.

The instrument, as the Board published it
