Illustration for Marine and Coastal Area (Takutai Moana) Act 2011

The Registrar must cancel a record of title if the land is wholly in the common marine and coastal area. You need to know that the Minister of Conservation can ask for this to happen. The Registrar will issue a new record of title if the old one had a registered interest or notification on it. When a registered interest or notification expires, the Registrar must cancel the new record of title. You can find more information about this in the Land Transfer Act 2017. The Registrar does this at the request of the Minister of Conservation. The Registrar records that the land is in the common marine and coastal area on the new record of title. This happens when a registered interest or notification is moved to a new record of title. The Minister of Conservation can ask the Registrar to cancel the record of title.
