Part 8: Rectification of the Register

Rectification

Section 81: Rectification where registration provisional etc.

193.This section is a limited qualification to the Keeper’s duty to rectify under section 80. Where rectification would interrupt a period of positive prescription (including in the case of a prescriptive claimant under section 43), the Keeper may only rectify the Register where those who are affected consent or where the fact of the inaccuracy has been judicially determined.
