Each Concentrate revision guide is packed with essential information, key cases, revision tips, exam Q&As, and more. Concentrates show you what to expect in a law exam, what examiners are looking for, and how to achieve extra marks. This chapter discusses unregistered land. This is land where title has not been registered at the Land Registry. Proof of ownership comes from an examination of title deeds relating to that land. Identification of any third party proprietary interests burdening a piece of unregistered land cannot be discovered by a search of the land register. Rather, an examination of the title documents and various registers is required to discover their existence. The most important is a search of the Land Charges Register which is made against the names of previous owners, not the property address. Legal interests over unregistered land bind the world, with the exception of the puisne mortgage, which requires registration as a land charge to be binding. Interests covered by the Land Charges Act 1972 must be registered as the appropriate land charge to bind a purchaser. Failure to register such an interest appropriately means that the interest will not bind certain types of purchasers of the land.

Land Register

The famous inscription (pl. iii, I) from Orange, forming part of a tabula censualis and enumerating parcels of land called merides, together with their lessees, sureties and land-tax, has been the subject of several learned commentaries since its discovery in 1904. These have established that the merides are not plots of agricultural land, but of urbanised property. Their position in the urban area is, however, less certain. It has been thought that they fronted upon the kardo of the surveyors; but this interpretation of the abbreviation ad K, which concludes the tabulation of each plot, is convincingly shown in an article to be published in this Journal to be supplanted by the expansion ad k(alendarium), meaning the ‘municipal register of debtors’.

Land Register

The National Program for Land Registration and the Land Registry, which aims to achieve the systematic registration of land in the integrated land cadastre and land register throughout the country by 2023 is in progress. It is a massive undertaking which requires the creation of a new land register and the registration of approximately 40 million immovable assets into it. The present study shows the legal hurdles that have been faced in carrying out the program. These issues are the following: ongoing property and border disputes between the various owners, succession procedures which have yet to be finalized, litigation that has arisen as a result of differences between land measurements and the data in the records held at the land registry. Due to the afore-mentioned legal issues, it is not possible to finalize the systematic registration in the integrated cadastre and land register throughout the country in time (by 2023). Also, there is the legal issue posed by the possibility for the person possessing the immovable asset without valid title to be inducted into the land register as owner, based on a certificate issued by a notary public, which in our opinion, is contrary to the law.
