20: Information in register to be retained

You could also call this:

"Keep all information in the register, even if it's wrong or outdated."

Illustration for Land Transfer Act 2017

You must keep information in the register, even if it is incorrect and has been changed by the Registrar under section 21. You also keep the information if it has been superseded, is no longer current, or if the way the register is kept changes. The information stays in the register or is kept somewhere else.
