Top of their agenda is to RESTORE OUR PROPERTY RIGHTS and REPEAL this 2021 legislation....Section 215 was added into the Land Title Act 1994 states: 2021, the red and blue teams stripped away our property rights when they introduce a new section (215) into The Land, Explosives and Other Legislation c The new Section 215 in the Land Title Act 1994 states: Certification of title cease to be instruments: (1) On the commencement, a certificate of title – a) Ceases to be an instrument under this Act; and b) Ceases to be evidence, conclusive or otherwise, of the indefeasible title for the lot for which it was issue. (2) To remove any doubt, it is declared that subsection (1) does not affect— (a) the indefeasible title for the lot for which the certificate of title was issued; or (b) any interest in the lot for which the certificate of title was issued. The new digital certificates do NOT show lawful proof of historical ownership and carry NO LEGAL WEIGHT, as did our previous Certificate of Titles as the value of a property is held in the TITLE DEEDS.
