50: Changes of status of land to be noted

You could also call this:

"Update land records when its status changes."

When the status of land changes, you need to update the records. If a notice is published in the Gazette about a change, the Registrar-General of Land or Chief Surveyor will register a copy of it against the land title. The Director-General must tell the Chief Surveyor in writing when land is disposed of or transferred under section 60(2) or section 64A. You can find more information about these sections in the Conservation Act.
