Public Administrations before the new regime of coordination between the Property Registry and the Cadastre

Pablo Puyal Sanz
Abstract

The recent Law 13/2015, of 24 June, on the Amendment of the Mortgage Law and the consolidated text of the Cadastre Law, has articulated a new coordination system between the Property Registry and the Cadastre. The law provides that is the cadastral map the key to physically describe real properties. Public Administrations should actively rethink the use of the information regarding the territory in all their action when they exercise their control competences or when they manage their own patrimony. In all administrative proceedings involving the registration of real properties or the modification of their configuration, the protection of the public domain or in the execution of legislation on town planning and the protection of the environment, Public Administrations must use the cadastral information and update the same in order to control the physical description of real properties. To this end, Public Administrations must assume their new role and the obligations that the law entrusts to them through the review of their action and proceedings.
