Which provision ensures documents are sent to the buyer's lawyer no later than the end of the next working day after completion?

• A. Documents will be sent by the Seller's lawyer as soon as possible after completion, and by the end of the next working day following completion.
• B. Documents must be sent before exchange.
• C. Documents are not required to be sent.
• D. Documents are sent only if requested.

Answer: (A)

The concept being tested is the timely handover of post‑completion documents in a conveyancing transaction. After completion, the seller’s solicitor must send the title documents and related papers to the buyer’s solicitor quickly to allow registration and any onward steps to proceed without delay.

The correct provision requires that these documents be sent as soon as possible after completion and, at the latest, by the end of the next working day after completion. This creates a clear, enforceable deadline that keeps the conveyancing chain moving and supports prompt registration and mortgage formalities.

Options that suggest sending documents before exchange, that they aren’t required, or that they’re sent only if requested do not reflect the standard practice. Documents post-completion are essential for the buyer’s title and registration, and there’s an expectation they are dispatched promptly rather than only on request.
