HC Deb 14 July 1884 vol 290 c917
MR. ARTHUR ARNOLD

asked the Secretary to the Treasury, What is the number of new titles which have been placed in the year 1883, upon the Register in the Office of Land Registry, for which a Vote of £5,442 is demanded in the Civil Service Estimates?

MR. COURTNEY

A full Return of the transactions in the Land Registry for the years 1882 and 1883 was presented on the 8th, on the Motion of my hon. Friend the Member for Stockport. In answer to the specific Question of my hon. Friend, I am informed by the Registrar that 272 new titles have been placed upon the Register in 1883.

MR. ARTHUR ARNOLD

asked whether the Government intended going on this year with the Middlesex Land Registry Bill?

MR. COURTNEY

I am afraid it is rather late to think about making further progress with the Bill.
