Dear Registers of Scotland,

We have a document entitled 'Udal Law and the Land Register: A Guide to the Keeper's Policy', published in 2003.

On page 2, there is a section: 'Transfers of udal title after 1 April 2003', which refers to section 2(1)(a)(v) of the Land Registration (Scotland) Act 1979.

Our requests are:

1) What information do you have regarding what happened on 1 April 2003? and

2) In view of the fact that the relevant provisions of Land Registration (Scotland) Act 1979 by the Land Registration etc. (Scotland) Act 2012, what provisions of that Act cover udal land?

Yours faithfully,

The Sovereign Nation of Shetland
