Abstract
In order to harmonise the Australian Torrens statutes, it is necessary to agree upon a common set of rules delimiting the claims that may be made against a registered owner arising from adverse possession, encroachment by buildings, or improvement of land under a mistake. The Australasian and overseas experience of various rules of adverse possession, mistaken improver and building encroachment statutes is analysed, to identify and evaluate the options and outline a recommended approach.
