CORRESPONDENCE
DANGEROUS LAND CERTIFICATE
Centaur Street,
Carlow, 29 October 1976
Dear Mr. Ivers,
Recently I obtained from a client's Bank his Land
Certificate on Accountable Receipt with a view to
selling the property contained herein. The Land Cer-
tificate showed my client registered as Full Owner with
Absolute Title and the only prohibition was sub-letting
or sub-division specified in Section 12 of the Land Act,
1965 and the provision restricting the vesting of in-
terests specified in Section 45 of the same Act.
I prepared a Contract and was about to have it signed
when a certificate copy Fo'io which 1 had bespoken
became available. On reading this document I was
amazed to se
A
that it contained an entry not contained
in the Land Certificate restricting the transfer of the
property without the consent of the Land Commission,
by reason of the provisions of Section 6 of the Land
Act. 1946 which impose a restriction on an original
holding when the owner thereof has obtained an ad-
ditional holding from the Land Commission on the
division of an Estate elsewhere.
It would accordingly appear that our Profession
cannot rely on the Land Certificate as containing the
true title of any lands. If, for example, I had acted for
a Purchaser of the lands in question without looking
at a Folio, I could be in serious trouble.
Incidentally the Bank from whom I got the Land
Certificate would appear to have had little or no sec-
urity. I think this should be brought to the notice of
the Profession.
Yours sincerely,
Frank Lanigan.
