by Andrea Zander

In Australia, the Victorian Land Title and Registry, backed by the First State Superannuation Scheme, will operate some of the land titles and registry functions of Land Use Victoria for a 40-year term.

The sales price was A$2.86 billion ($2.1 billion).

The registrar of titles will remain under the government control. The state is also retaining ownership of essential services, including the Subdivisions, Application & Survey, Valuer-General Victoria, Land Information and Spatial Services, Government Land Advice and Coordination, and the Victorian Government Land Monitor.
