Land and Conveyancing Law Reform Bill 2006: Report and Final Stages
4:00 pm
Joanna Tuffy (Labour)
I move amendment No. 10:
In page 19, between lines 10 and 11, to insert the following:
"(4) Subject to this Act a fee simple shall be freely alienable by the owner thereof.".
While section 9(3)(c) states that section 9(2) does not affect the rule against inalienability, the rule itself is contained in an Act that is repealed by section 8(3) so the rule is not stated in the Bill. This has the potential to cause confusion so we believe it is necessary to state the rule in the Bill so that it is clear what rule it refers to.
