91A Application of Law of Property Act 2000
On the commencement of the Law of Property Act 2000:
(a) that Act applies to estates, interests and any other rights in or
in respect of land, granted, created or taking effect under this
Act, but if there is an inconsistency between the provisions of
that Act and a specific provision of this Act, this Act prevails;
(b) Part 7 of that Act applies to or in respect of an interest
granted, created or taking effect under this Act, subject that a
reference to the Registrar-General is to be construed as a
reference to the Registrar under Part IV of this Act; and
(c) in registering the creation or transfer of an interest under this
Act, the Registrar is to record co-owners (if any) of the interest
as tenants in common unless satisfied that the intention was
for the interest to be held as joint tenants.
