All unclaimed and unoccupied land shall be deemed to be Crown land.
Possession or receipt of rents and profits by any person through whom a claimant derives his title shall be deemed to have been the possession or receipt of rents and profits of the claimant.
Where, from the relationship of the parties or from other special causes, it appears that the person in possession of land is or was in possession on behalf of another, his possession shall be deemed to be or to have been the possession of that other.
Where two or more persons have rights which entitle them to be registered as joint proprietors or proprietors in common under the Registered Land Law (1995 Revision), the Records Officer shall record such persons as joint owners or owners in common, as the case may be, and, if owners in common, the share of each such owner.
A receipt shall be given by the Records Officer for all documents produced by a claimant and retained.
