Land Title Act 1994

The registrar may enter into an agreement to supply statistical data derived from instruments or information kept in the land registry.

If the registrar supplies statistical data under subsection (1)—

the fees and charges applying for the supply of the data are the fees and charges agreed to in the agreement; and

without limiting paragraph (a), the agreement may also state—

how the fees and charges are to be calculated; and

how payment of the fees and charges is to be made.

Without limiting subsection (1), an agreement for the supply of statistical data may limit the use to which the data supplied may be put.

An agreement for the supply of statistical data must include—

a provision allowing the registrar to exclude particulars from data supplied under the agreement, if the registrar is satisfied, on reasonable grounds, that inclusion of the particulars may result in the particulars being inappropriately disclosed or used; and

a provision allowing the registrar to prohibit disclosure, or to limit distribution or use, of data supplied under the agreement.

An agreement under this section must not provide for the obtaining of information or anything else that may be obtained under a search under section 35, other than section 35(1)(a)(iv).

The registrar must exclude land particulars and personal information from data supplied under the agreement.

Subsection (6) applies despite anything in the agreement.

If the registrar delegates the registrar’s function of keeping the land registry to the titles registry operator, this section applies as if each reference to the registrar were a reference to the operator.
