It should be borne in mind that a rules committee is established under section 26 — the registration of deeds and title rules committee. With the concurrence of the Minister, that committee has the specific function under section 26(b) of dealing with the forms of application for registration of deeds or for searches and other such matters. The various professional persons knowledgeable in these matters are represented on the rules committee and can have their views made known in that forum.

With regard to the advisory council, provision is made in section 17, which is a new section.
