MEDQ may, by gazette notice, declare any of the following is vested in MEDQ, in fee simple— any land that comprised a road under the Land Act 1994 that has been permanently closed under section 124 ; unallocated State land in a priority development area. The chief executive of the department in which the Land Act 1994 is administered must, under that Act, register the vesting if MEDQ lodges in the land registry under that Act— a request under that Act to register the vesting; and if that chief executive so requires—a plan of subdivision under that Act for the land the subject of the vesting; and a copy of the gazette notice.
