8 Acceptance of forms used in States, etc.
(1) The Registrar-General may accept a dealing, instrument, document
or plan in respect of land in the Territory in accordance with a form
that is used in another Commonwealth jurisdiction if, in the opinion
of the Registrar-General:
(a) the form is consistent with the law of the Territory; and
(b) the form is suitable for use in the Territory.
(2) If a form referred to in subsection (1) refers to a provision of a law in
force in a place outside the Territory, the reference is taken to be a
reference to a comparable provision in the law of the Territory and,
for the purposes of the application of the Territory law, the form is
taken to have been validly executed in the Territory.
