22 Effect of caveat
Subject to subregulation (2), a caveat that has been registered under this Part may (according to its terms) forbid the registration of—
a transfer of a relevant entitlement; or
a variation of a relevant entitlement; or
a security interest that relates to a relevant entitlement;
or
a surrender of a relevant entitlement, unless—
the caveator consents to the registration; or
the relevant dealing is expressly stated to be subject to the interest claimed by the caveator; or
the relevant dealing is a dealing, or is a dealing of a class, specified in the caveat.
The registration of a caveat under this Part—
does not warrant or confirm the validity of any interest to which the caveat relates; and
does not limit or affect any action that the Minister may take in relation to a water licence or a water access entitlement under the Act, any regulations or a water allocation plan, or in the exercise of any other statutory function or power; and
does not have the effect of requiring the consent of the caveator to any transfer of a water allocation during a particular water use year;
and
does not affect or prevent any transfer, variation, or surrender of a water licence, or any water access entitlement, required by law or by an order of a court or tribunal constituted by law; and
does not affect or prevent the registration of any security interest required by law or by an order of a court or tribunal constituted by law; and
does not prevent the expiry of a water licence or water access entitlement, or any associated water allocation or other authorisation under the Act; and
does not prevent or affect the exercise of a power of sale under
Schedule 4 clause 13 of the Act (as provided by these regulations).
