99. Rectification of land register

(1)Subject to any express provisions of this Act, the land register may be rectified pursuant to an order of the High Court or by the Registrar subject to an appeal to the High Court, in any of the following cases—
(a)where the High Court has decided that any person is entitled to any estate or interest in any registered land and as a consequence of such decision the High Court is of opinion that a rectification of the land register is required, and makes an order to that effect;
(b)where the High Court, on the application of any person who is aggrieved by any memorial made in, or by the omission of any memorial from the land register, or by any default being made, or unnecessary delay taking place in the inscription of any memorial in the land register, makes an order for the rectification of the land register;
(c)in any case and at any time with the consent of all persons interested;
(d)where the High Court or the Registrar is satisfied that any memorial in the land register, has been obtained by fraud;
(e)where any memorial has become wholly obsolete; and
(f)in any other case, where by reason of any error or omission in the land register or by reason of any memorial made under a mistake, or for other sufficient cause it may be deemed just to rectify the land register.
(2)The land register shall not be rectified so as to affect the title of an owner of an estate who is in possession—
(a)unless such owner is a party or privy or has caused or substantially contributed to the fraud, mistake or omission in consequence of which such rectification is sought;
(b)unless the immediate disposition to him was void, or the disposition to any person through whom he claims otherwise than for value was void; or
(c)unless for any other reason, in any particular case, it is considered that it would be unjust not to rectify the register against him.
(3)Where the land register is rectified, the Registrar shall not erase or render illegible the original memorial and shall affix the date on which such rectification is made and initial the same.

(1)Any person suffering loss by reason of any rectification of the land register under this Act shall, subject to the provisions of this Act, be entitled to be indemnified by the Government.
(2)Where an error or omission has occurred in the land register but the land register is not rectified, any person suffering loss by reason of such error or omission shall, subject to the provisions of this Act, be entitled to be indemnified by the Government.
(3)Where any person suffers loss by reason of an error in a copy of, or extract from the land register or from a document or plan filed in the land registry, certified under the provisions of this Act, he shall be entitled to be indemnified by the Government.
(4)No indemnity shall be payable under this Act to any person who has himself caused or substantially contributed to the loss by his fraud or negligence, or derives title (otherwise than under registered disposition for value) from a person who so caused or substantially contributed to the loss.
(5)Where an indemnity is paid in respect of the loss of an estate or interest in any registered land, the amount so paid shall not exceed—
(a)where the land register is not rectified, the value of the estate or interest at the time when the error or omission which caused the loss was made; or
(b)where the land register is rectified, the value of the estate or interest immediately before the time of rectification.
(6)The Registrar may, on the application of any interested party and subject to an appeal to the High Court, determine whether a right to indemnity has arisen under this section, and if so, award indemnity.
(7)In granting any indemnity, the Registrar may have regard to any costs and expenses properly incurred in relation to the matter, and may add the same to the amount of the indemnity which would otherwise be payable.
(8)Notwithstanding anything contained in the Government Proceedings Act, where indemnity is paid for a loss, the Registrar, on behalf of the Government, shall be entitled to recover by suit or otherwise amount so paid from any person who has caused or substantially contributed to the loss by his fraud or negligence, and enforce any express or implied covenant or other right which the person who is indemnified would have been entitled to enforce in relation to the matter in respect of which indemnity has been paid.[Cap. 5]
(9)Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this section, no person shall be entitled to any indemnity from the Government for any loss occasioned by—
(a)any alteration made in the land register in accordance with the provisions of section 61 of the Freehold Titles (Conversion) and Government Leases Act.[Cap. 393]
