The court found that the order was made in accordance with the relevant statutory provisions and that it was not inconsistent with any other relevant legislation. The court also held that the order was necessary to ensure that the Conveyancing Act 2004 applied to the specified instruments in order to provide greater protection to consumers in the conveyancing process.

The court's reasoning was based on a careful analysis of the relevant statutory provisions and the circumstances in which the order was made. The court found that the order was made in accordance with the relevant statutory provisions and that it was not inconsistent with any other relevant legislation. The court also found that the order was necessary to ensure that the Conveyancing Act 2004 applied to the specified instruments in order to provide greater protection to consumers in the conveyancing process.
