Agreement in PrincipleRegistrar-General Legislation (Amendment and Repeal) Bill 2010 • March 26th, 2010
The Registrar-General Legislation (Amendment and Repeal) Bill 2010 seeks to repeal the Registrar-General Act 1973 and transfer the provisions relating to the Registrar-General to the Real Property Act 1900. Most importantly, this proposed bill will grant the Registrar-General a power of delegation common in most legislation. The Registrar-General Act is an antiquated piece of legislation that in many ways has been made redundant due to the commencement of other legislation over the years. Section 3 (1) of the Registrar-General Act refers to the Registrar-General being appointed by the Governor under the repealed Public Service Act of 1902. Similarly, the section refers to deputy registrars-general being appointed by the Governor.
