Government Adds 6,000 Parcels
“We have set up and established a new dedicated
Land Registry that allows matters relating to land
titles to be processed much more quickly than they
had been in the past,” Hon. Byron explained. “This is
critical in terms of economic activity as people need
to approach banks to raise funds. You need to have
titles to your land and property to use as mortgage
instruments so we can move forward in our
development of our country.”
The Land Registry is now separated from the High
Court to work closely with the St. Kitts and Nevis
Inland Revenue Departments and Lands and
Surveys Department. Other departments it works
with are the Ministries of Sustainable Development
and the Ministries of Communications and Physical
Planning.
