Abstract

This Act makes provision for the recording of deeds, i.e. every document in writing affecting or relating to lands, tenements, or hereditaments in Montserrat. However, the Act does not apply to any document evidencing a transaction that shall be registered under the Registered Land Act. It defines the effect of the (non-) registration of deeds and concerns the proof of deeds. It also makes provision for administrative matters relating to recording and duties of recording officers.
