Automated Registration of Title to Land (Electronic Communications) (Scotland) Order 2006 (draft)

Agenda item 3 is consideration of a draft instrument subject to approval. No points arise on the draft instrument, a note on which is contained in the additional legal brief.

Members may wish to note that the Executive has corrected an error in the draft order that was identified by our legal advisers. It could be said that there is almost an informal system of the type that we are trying to put in place. We welcome the correction.

I welcome the draft order on a policy basis. The registration of titles to land is unbelievably slow at the moment, and if the order helps, it is more than welcome.

Absolutely.
