Subject to this Law, the proprietor of land upon which a building is or is to be constructed may apply to the Registrar, in the manner provided by or under this Law and prescribed under the Registered Land Law (2004 Revision), for the registration of the horizontal or vertical subdivisions, to be known as strata lots, in accordance with a plan (to be known as a strata plan) which shall accompany the application.
When a strata plan has been so registered, any strata lot included therein may devolve or be dealt with in the same manner and form as land under the operation of the Registered Land Law (2004 Revision).
Upon registration of a strata plan, complete strata plan, phase strata plan and an amended strata plan —
the land described in such plan is divided into strata lots and common property, if any, in accordance with the plan; and
the proprietor of each strata lot is entitled to all the rights and obligations of a proprietor including the right to vote as a member of the corporation established upon registration of the plan in accordance with section 5.
A strata plan shall, for the purposes of the Registered Land Law (2004 Revision), be deemed upon registration to be embodied in the register kept under that Law, and notwithstanding that Law the proprietor of each strata lot shall hold such strata lot and his share in the common property subject to —
any interests affecting such strata lot or such share; and
any amendments to strata lots or common property, notified, or shown, as the case may require, on the registered strata plan.
Notwithstanding subsection (1), a strata plan may be lodged for registration, and acts preparatory to the registration thereof may be done in relation thereto before the land comprised therein is brought under the operation of the Registered Land Law (2004 Revision).
Any enactment, other than this Law, relating to the subdivision of land for sale or for the purpose of building thereon shall, to such extent as may be prescribed by regulations under this Law, not apply to land comprised in a strata plan.
The Governor in Cabinet may, upon the application of any proprietor, grant permission for the registration of a strata plan over a parcel of land being used or intended to be used wholly or partly as a hotel, and such permission may be granted upon such terms and conditions as the Governor in Cabinet thinks fit.
The Governor in Cabinet may make regulations relating to the manner of making an application under subsection (6).
