51 Registration of compulsory acquisition declarations
As soon as practicable, and, in any event, within 28 days, after the publication in the Gazette of a copy of a declaration under subsection 41(1) or of a notice varying such a declaration, the Secretary of the Department shall cause to be lodged with the Registrar‑General, Registrar of Titles or other proper officer of the State or Territory in which the relevant land is situated a memorandum setting out particulars of the declaration, or of the variation, as the case may be.
The officer with whom memorandum is lodged may:
deal with and give effect to the declaration as if it were a grant, conveyance, or transfer of the acquired interest to the acquiring authority duly executed under the law in force in the State or Territory; and
make such entries in the records kept by the officer as are necessary having regard to the effect of subsection 41(4).
