Section 10. The Minister of Interior shall have charge and control of the execution of this Act.

Remarks:- The reasons of the promulgation of this Act are as follows: It is considered expedient to amend the provisions in relation to the person authorized to order the revocation or the correction of the Title Deed or the Utilization Certificate to the effect that only the Director-General or the Deputy Director-General authorized thereby shall have powers and duties to order the revocation or the correction thereof in order to accelerate the process of revocation or correction. In addition, it is advisable to revise the provisions related to the registration of the immovable properties devolved by succession, the attachment of land, the levy of fee for registration of rights and juristic acts, and the schedule of fees and expenses annexed to the Land Code. It is therefore necessary to enact this Act.

In addition, for purpose of convenience in implementing the law without the need to search into the law on transfer of powers and duties to check which unit or person is responsible for which duty, certain provisions thereof are amended to provide for the change of names of the government units, the Ministers, the persons holding office, or the persons performing duties of the government units to correspond with the change of powers and duties. Furthermore, there shall be an addition of the government units’ representatives into the Committee so as to be in line with the tasks that have been transferred from the former units which are consequentially to be abolished in accordance with the aforesaid Act and Royal Decree.
