Registrar's Circulars

Registrars' Conference Resolutions - 2020

At the Annual Registrar's Conference held recently seven matters were discussed and resolutions taken. These relate to the day to day practice of Conveyancing and Notarial Practice, and become operative on the 2nd January 2021, vide CRC 16 of 2005.

Everybody involved in conveyancing and notarial practice must take cognizance of the resolutions, as some have altered the practice and others have merely confirmed the existing practice.
