Land Registration Act 2002

Miscellaneous

Section 89: Settlements

144.The Land Registration Act 1925 contains detailed provisions about its application to settlements under the Settled Land Act 1925. Settlements are not very common and after 1996 the creation of new settlements under the Settled Land Act 1925 has not been possible, so, in time, settlements will disappear. For these reasons this section provides for rules to make provision for the Act’s purposes in relation to the application to registered land of the enactments relating to settlements under the Settled Land Act 1925, rather than setting out the provisions in the Act.

Section 90: PPP leases relating to transport in London

145.London Transport Public/Private Partnership leases will arise out of the arrangements for the future running of the London underground railway. These leases will include underground railway lines, stations and other installations. At present such leases: would not trigger first registration; would not be registrable dispositions but would take effect as if they were; would be incapable of substantive registration; and their priority would be protected on first registration or on a registered disposition, without being on the register. This section provides that such leases shall have a similar status under the Act.
