Commentary on the Sections: Part 1 Registration
46.Commonhold can only be created out of registered freehold land.  The essence of its creation is a further registration process to be carried out by HM Land Registry.  When the commonhold is fully effective, the Registry will have entries on the appropriate register which will show the individual ownership of units within the development and the ownership of the common parts by the commonhold association, with necessary cross references. Sections 2-5 set out the commonhold registration process.
