Pupil Kate Harrington examines the role of the First-tier Tribunal (Land Registration) and asks whether it is meant to be a Court for all registered land disputes (in which case, she argues, it lacks many powers that would normally be associated with such a tribunal) or if it is simply meant to ensure that entries at the Land Registry are up to date (in which case it is overcomplicated and expensive).

Charles Auld assisted Kate with some practitioner’s points.
