Maintaining the Quality of Information in the Land Title Register: Data Repair Mechanisms

Abstract
The accuracy of the Land Registry and keeping the information up to date is essential for the performance of the system. This article poses three main problems that affect this accuracy. First, unregistered transfers or transactions. There are different reasons why this occurs. The author asks if the legal rule that requires registration is enough incentive to register. Encouraging parties to register is a regulatory problem. Is adverse possession inconsistent with a title registration system? This article offers a singular view on the question. Second, changes in occupational boundaries. How do boundaries change? A legal rule is needed to adjust occupational boundaries with the boundaries recorded in the register. Third, registry errors are challenging the integrity and accuracy. How can the errors be corrected? How to allocate liability? And in the end, who gets the land and who gets monetary compensation? These are key questions.
