396: Application of sections 397 to 399

You could also call this:

“These rules tell us when to use special parts of a contract, even if they're not written down.”

This section of the law no longer applies. It was removed on 1 January 2015. However, it still affects contracts made between 30 November 2004 and 1 January 2015. If you made an agreement during this time, the old rules in sections 397 to 399 might still be important for you.
