HC Deb 07 July 1969 vol 786 cc201-2W
Mr. Oakes

asked the Attorney-General if he will study the possibility of combining the register of land charges with the census registers of local land charges so that a single search on one register could be made by an intending house purchaser.

The Attorney-General

My noble Friend the Lord Chancellor accepts the conclusion reached by the Law Commission in paragraph 27 of its Report on Land Charges Affecting Unregistered Land (Law Com. No. 18) that it is not now possible to set up a wholly new land charges system.
