unit of a scheme is a lot:

(a) created on the registration of a plan of subdivision or plan of consolidation; and

(b) specified as a unit in the scheme statement by reference to a cubic space, a parcel of land unlimited in its vertical dimensions, or both.

Example for subsection (1)(b)

A unit comprising an apartment and courtyard.

(2) Except as otherwise specified in the scheme statement, a fixed structure (including, for example, a ceiling, floor or wall) separating a unit from another lot is not part of the unit.

(3) A unit may be specified in the scheme statement as a unit for immediate occupation or further development.

(4) A unit may form the whole of the scheme land of a subsidiary scheme.

Note for subsection (4)

For the formation of a subsidiary scheme, see section 63(1).

(5) A reference to a unit of a scheme that has a subsidiary scheme does not include a reference to a unit of the subsidiary scheme.

Note for subsection (5)
