Section 240 — Land Transfer Act 1952: How Registrar gives public notice

240 How Registrar gives public notice If this Act requires that the Registrar give public notice of any matter but does not specify how the notice is to be given, it is sufficient that the Registrar— (a) publishes a notice in the Gazette and in 1 or more newspapers published in the area where the land affected by the matter is located; and (b) the notice gives sufficient information about the matter to enable persons who might respond to it to understand its effect. The original subsection (1) was amended, as from 1 February 1999, by section 43(1) Land Transfer (Automation) Amendment Act 1998 (1998 No 123) by substituting the word “ the ” where it secondly occurs for the word “ a ” . Sections 239 and 240 were substituted, as from 1 June 2002, by section 63 Land Transfer (Computer Registers and Electronic Lodgement) Amendment Act 2002 (2002 No 11).
