Project overview

This project reviewed the Property Law Act 1952. At the same time the Department of Justice reviewed aspects of the Land Transfer Act 1952 because new techology is proposed for the system of registration. This project was concerned with certain vestiges of the feudal system which continue to dominate the theory, if not the practice, of land law in New Zealand.
