As our colleague so astutely notes, it's a synonym, posted partly because I've never been keen on "assignment" in this context, although it is widely used. I'll go and sit on the (expletive deleted) naughty step until 2021...

Example sentence(s):
  • The cession of a contract must not compromise the terms and conditions of the contract.
  • (ii) that following cession of a contract any SPT livery should also be removed

agree  AllegroTrans: Well clearly not wrong, but assignment is the more widely-used term (at least where I live)

  -> Cheers! US spelling is more widely used too, but I still prefer to keep the UK flag flying against the odds...
