Summary

edit

Did we need a separate definition of “Relevant Registry”? Does it convey any nuance or additional colour that the lower-cased, colloquial, “relevant Registry” does not. In our humble opinion, it does not. Do we really even need the word relevant? In what world, and why, would one be talking about a Registry that was irrelevant?

Do not get us started on all this business about there being more than one Specified Holding Account.
