About this statute

The new Foundations Act enters into force on 1 December 2015, repeals the old foundations act, applies to foundations formed before commencement unless the Act provides otherwise, and replaces references to old-law provisions with the corresponding new-law provisions. Vissa stiftelser får fortsätta att tillämpa äldre regler till utgången av 2034, och vissa bestämmelser upphör annars att gälla den 31 december 2034. Section 3 sets transitional rules for when the old or new law applies to the formation and registration of a foundation. Stiftelser måste anpassa motstridiga stadgebestämmelser till den nya lagen och registrera ändringarna inom tre år; efter ikraftträdandet får motstridiga bestämmelser inte registreras. När den nya lagen träder i kraft ska registermyndigheten lägga till "sr" efter namnet på vissa stiftelser.
