It was answered by Baroness Maclean of Redditch (Conservative) on Monday, 23 October 2023 on behalf of the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities.


Land: Registration

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, what recent steps he has taken to help ensure HM Land Registry completes the registration of new titles where a previously registered plot has been divided.

Answer

The department does not hold the information in the format requested to answer question 201322, and it could only be provided at disproportionate cost. HMLR publishes information each month about its latest processing times on GOV.UK here


Applications to HM Land Registry (HMLR) are protected with priority from their date of receipt. Provided they contain the information required for registration, they are guaranteed to be processed. I refer the Hon Member to the answer I gave to Question UIN 187953 on 14 June 2023 for information about the steps HMLR is taking to improve its speed of service.
