10 Agreement to grant estate in fee simple or lease of Crown land
(1) If a person has a right to be granted:
(a) an estate in fee simple in Crown land; or
(b) a lease of Crown land,
the Minister may, by instrument in the appropriate form, lodge with
the Registrar-General details of the means by which the right arose,
the nature of the interest to be granted and the particulars of the
land.
(2) On the lodgement of the details referred to in subsection (1), the
Registrar-General must create an entry in the land register in
relation to the land and record the particulars in accordance with
the Land Title Act 2000.
(3) Despite that a lease of Crown land has not been signed by the
lessee or the lessor, the recording of the particulars in the land
register takes effect as a lease.
