About the CPD course
Following on from the how to submit a successful application webinar; this short webinar will provide a deeper dive into the interplay between the registration of deeds in the Keeper's registers and execution of deeds under the Requirements of Writing (Scotland) Act 1995; including why Registers of Scotland have to reject deeds and some worked examples.
We are the government department responsible for public registers of land, property and other legal documents.
Our organisation has its roots in seventeenth century Edinburgh when the General Register of Sasines, the world’s oldest national land register, began to record ownership officially for the first time.
We now look after 20 public registers, among them the Land Register of Scotland, the Crofting Register, the Scottish Landlord Register and the Register of Community Interests in Land.
