Land Titles Act 1925

Whenever an interest has been registered in respect of a life estate in any land, any person entitled in reversion or remainder to the land may apply to be registered as so entitled, and the registrar‑general shall cause the title of the applicant to be investigated, and thereafter, upon consideration of the case, may, unless otherwise directed by the court, either reject the application altogether or direct that the applicant be registered forthwith or be so registered unless a caveat is lodged after the notice or advertisement and within such period as he or she thinks fit.
