An Act to amend the Chattels Transfer Act, 1924.
BE IT ENACTED by the General Assembly of New Zealand in Parliament assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows:—
1 Short Title.
This Act may be cited as the Chattels Transfer Amendment Act, 1925, and shall be read together with and deemed part of the Chattels Transfer Act, 1924 (hereinafter referred to as the principal Act).
2 Notice effected by registration of instrument.
Section four of the principal Act is hereby amended as follows:—
(a.)
By inserting, at the beginning of subsection one and also of subsection two, the words “Save as provided in subsection three hereof”
; and
(b.)
By adding the following subsection:—
“(3.)
Registration of any instrument to which subsection one or subsection two hereof applies shall not in itself constitute notice of the existence of that instrument or of its contents to the grantee of any prior registered instrument relating to the same chattels or to any of those chattels.”
3 Instruments of security over chattels situated in counties of Cheviot and Amuri to be registered at Christchurch.
(1.)
Section five of the principal Act is hereby amended by adding the following proviso:—
“Provided further that all instruments affecting chattels in the counties of Cheviot and Amuri shall be registered in the Supreme Court Office at Christchurch as if the said counties were in the Provincial District of Canterbury and not in the Provincial District of Nelson.”
(2.)
Forthwith after the passing of this Act the Registrar of the Supreme Court at Nelson shall cause to be transmitted to the Registrar of that Court at Christchurch all instruments theretofore registered under the principal Act at Nelson and comprising chattels situated either in the County of Cheviot or in the County of Amuri, together with all schedules, affidavits, and other instruments affecting the same, and thereupon the Registrar at Christchurch shall deal with such instruments in the same manner in all respects as if they had been originally filed for registration at Christchurch. The transfer of registration pursuant to this section shall have the same effect as if the instruments had been filed for registration in the Supreme Court Office at Christchurch when they were filed for registration at Nelson.
4 Application of Act to Crown.
The principal Act is hereby further amended by inserting, after section fifty-nine, the following:—
“Application of Act to the Crown.

A copy of the principal Act as amended by this Act shall be prepared and certified by the Attorney-General, and the Government Printer shall print in accordance with the copy so certified all copies of the principal Act which are printed after the commencement of this Act. Section twenty-nine of the Evidence Act, 1908, shall apply with respect to every copy printed in accordance with this section in the same manner in all respects as it applies with respect to copies of public Acts printed under the authority of the Government by the Government Printer.
(2.)
It shall not be necessary to incorporate in the reprint prepared pursuant to this section the provisions of this section or of subsection two of section three hereof.
(3.)
The reprint shall be cited as “The Chattels Transfer Acts, 1924–25 (Reprint).”
