Liability on disposing of land
47 Liability on disposing of land
The liability of a person to pay a catchment contribution in respect of any land does not cease on disposal of the land if notice of the contribution, in a form approved by Local Land Services—
was given before disposal of the land, or
is given after the disposal of the land, but before notice of the disposal is given to Local Land Services.
If a person—
disposes of any land, and
pays a contribution levied on the land that became payable to Local Land Services after disposal of the land and before the notice of the disposal is given to Local Land Services,
the person may recover the amount of the catchment contribution from the person who acquired the land.
Without limiting subclause (1), a person is taken to have given notice of the disposal of the land if notice of the disposal is lodged with the Registrar-General in accordance with the Conveyancing Act 1919 or the Real Property Act 1900 (as the case may be).
