Module Three

Module three of the LRA Training Materials deals with applications for registration or “AFR”. This is the process required for converting the title of a parcel from the old Registry System to the Land Registration System. This section provides an overview of the process and then detail the basics involved in the AFR process.

This section also contains a detailed discussion of easements in the Land Registration context, and what enquiries must be made to “match” easements with applicable parcels, including ones other than that of your client/owner. There are recent developments (May-September 2009) arising out of the May 4, 2009 Land Registration Administration Regulations and the Directive of the Registrar General of August 2009 on how the rules in Regulations 14-18 work in the AFR context.

The following resources are available to assist you in this area:
