520 _aDescribes the state of land registration. The Land Registry has been in existence since 1862. Compulsory land registration is on the increase since the Land Registration Act 2002 came into force. Less than 60% of land is registered, but the government aims to increase this by 2012. More transactions now trigger compulsory registration. This benefits the owner with greater protection against adverse possession claims. E-conveyancing is also being rolled out, making the bureaucratic process more user friendly. The main prohibitive factor for landowners is still the cost involved.
