7 Qualified title.F1E+W
(1)Where an absolute title is required, and on the examination of the title it appears to the registrar that the title can be established only for a limited period, or only subject to certain reservations, the registrar may, on the application of the party applying to be registered, by an entry made in the register, except from the effect of registration any estate, right, or interest—
(a)arising before a specified date, or
(b)arising under a specified instrument or otherwise particularly described in the register,
and a title registered subject to such excepted estate, right, or interest shall be called a qualified title.
(2)Where the registered land is a freehold estate, the registration of a person as first proprietor thereof with a qualified title shall have the same effect as the registration of such person with an absolute title, save that registration with a qualified title shall not affect or prejudice the enforcement of any estate, right or interest appearing by the register to be excepted.
