The Author
Brian Hayes was Registrar-General of Land from 1980 to 1996, having first been appointed as a District Land Registrar in 1967. He has published on an extensive range of land law topics and was a founding author for Butterworths Conveyancing Bulletin. This paper was initially prepared for the Land Access Ministerial Reference Group and has expanded from being a resource for the study by the Group to become of more general interest.
