Changes to Landgate’s Fees

Subject to the approval of the Governor, Landgate proposes to redefine its online products and pricing as part of its annual review of fees and charges. It is intended that a new fee schedule commence from 1 July 2008. The review includes an amalgamation of interactive search functions for names and other indices with primary search functions for obtaining copy documentation such as a Certificate of Title, Check Search, and Survey (Diagram, Deposited Plan and Strata Plan).

This means that Land Enquiry subscribers will be able to search for online information using multiple screens without incurring interactive fees - except when searching screens for Power of Attorney detail and for Sales Enquiry listings.

The benefits include:

• access to multiple screens without incurring additional charges
• certainty about the cost of obtaining land information online
• easier to track costs, and
• simplified invoicing

The review was undertaken in response to Land Enquiry users’ requests for a simplified pricing structure and advancements in technology which is reducing the need for an interactive charging system.
