South Australian Current Acts South Australian Current Acts (1) Where the
Surveyor-General had lodged a plan delineating the boundaries of allotments in
a designated survey area with the Registrar-General under the Survey
Act 1992 , the Registrar-General must examine the plan and, if it is in
order, accept it for filing in the Lands Titles Registration Office.
(2) A plan accepted
for filing under subsection (1) must be accepted in legal proceedings as
evidence (which may be rebutted) of the position and dimensions of the
boundaries of allotments that it delineates.
(3) A court, tribunal
or other body or person conducting legal proceedings must not make a finding
that the position or dimensions of the boundary of an allotment varies from
the position or dimensions of the boundary shown on a plan accepted for filing
under subsection (1) unless the court, tribunal, body or person has first
given the Surveyor-General, or a person acting on his or her behalf, the
opportunity to present evidence and be heard on that question.
(4) If the
Registrar-General finds an error in a plan accepted for filing under
subsection (1), he or she may, with the approval of the Surveyor-General,
amend the plan in order to correct the error.
(5) As soon as
practicable after accepting a plan for filing under subsection (1) or
amending a plan under subsection (4), the Registrar-General must correct
any certificate of title that is inconsistent with a boundary delineated on
the plan.
