The Benefits of e-Conveyancing: Discussion

12:05 pm

Mr. Patrick Dorgan:

If I am honest, the least enthusiastic supporter of e-conveyancing has been the banking sector despite the fact we see it as being a major beneficiary of the system. Frankly, we do not understand its approach. On the one hand it states it is positive in its support, but by its actions over a period of time it has been indifferent and hostile. It has raised conflicting and sometimes contradictory positions with us, including in its most recent submission.
