In a statement on Tuesday, Karoney said that the Land Registration Act was enacted in 2012 thereby repealing all other land registration statutes. Karoney said that the object of the conversion is to collapse land registration processes in the repealed land registration laws into one. All titles issued under the repealed laws shall be cancelled and replaced with titles under the Land Registration Act, 2012.
