A participial phrase that limits (i.e. restricts) the application of the verb to the subject.
For example, 'My relatives who are arriving tomorrow enjoy fish and chips.' This means that those of my relatives who happen to be arriving tomorrow enjoy fish and chips. But it provides no information about those of my relatives who do not happen to be arriving tomorrow. The participial clause 'who are arriving tomorrow' restricts the verb 'enjoy' to a subset of my relatives.
On the other hand, if I use commas to separate the participial clause from the rest of the sentence, it stops being restrictive and becomes descriptive: 'My relatives, who are arriving tomorrow, enjoy fish and chips.' This means 'My relatives enjoy fish and chips, and by the way they are arriving tomorrow.' The participial clause 'who are arriving tomorrow' describes my relatives.
Commas used for this purpose are always in pairs. They are equivalent to opening and closing parentheses.
The phrase "further declaratory and restrictive clauses" refers to additional provisions in a legal document, such as a contract or deed, that clarify rights and obligations (declaratory) and impose limitations or prohibitions on actions (restrictive). Declaratory clauses aim to specify the intentions and interpretations of the parties involved, while restrictive clauses delineate boundaries or conditions that must be adhered to. Together, they help ensure clarity and enforceability in legal agreements.
