Waiver of Ministerial consent requirement
18 Waiver of Ministerial consent requirement
The holder of a continued tenure or the mortgagee in possession of land under the tenure may apply to the Minister for a waiver of any requirement under this Schedule for the Minister to give consent before a transfer or other dealing can happen.
The application must—
be made before any agreement or other arrangement for the transfer or other dealing is made by the holder, and
specify the land to which the transfer or other dealing relates.
The Minister may, by written notice given to the applicant, grant the waiver for the period (if any) specified and subject to any conditions that the Minister decides to impose.
The waiver has effect despite the provision of this Schedule that requires the consent.
The Registrar-General may rely on the notice when accepting or registering any transfer or other dealing to which the waiver relates if the transfer or dealing is lodged while the waiver is in effect.
