Land Titles Ordinance

Comments were received from members of the Land Titles Ordinance Steering Committee (LTOSC) on the revised proposal of rectification and indemnity arrangements and conversion options for handling indeterminate ownership cases under the Two-Stage Conversion Mechanism.  A further meeting was held with Heung Yee Kuk in December 2014 for exchange of views on the issues.  The Land Registry is considering the comments received.  A public consultation on the proposed amendments to the Land Titles Ordinance will be launched in due course.

Integrated Registration Information System (IRIS) Enhancements

In March 2015, we launched the following enhancements to the IRIS Online Services:

• displaying an alert if there is outstanding item in the Order List when customer closes a browser window or logs in/out of the IRIS;
• showing a progress indicator on screen when the system is generating a compressed file (in ZIP format) containing all document images for download by customer;
• updating the client workstation requirement specifications of the IRIS Online Services to support different operating systems, browsers and mobile devices; and
• disabling the use of Secure Sockets Layer protocol, version 3 for strengthening Internet security.
