The Lord Chancellor’s Department has indicated that the Land Registration Act 2002 will be implemented in the autumn of next year.
Replying to a parliamentary question last week, Rosie Winterton, the parliamentary secretary to the Lord Chancellor’s Department, said: “The Land Registration Act 2002 will be brought into force on Monday 13 October 2003.
“This will allow sufficient time to consult on and make the necessary secondary legislation; to develop new office procedures to accommodate the new legislation and to carry out a thorough programme of education and training, both within the Land Registry and across the wider conveyancing community.”
