875 Courts and Titles Office, Northern Territory/Courts and Registration Offices,Northern Territory

Date Range:1962 - 1973

Description

On 25 June 1956 the Courts Office, Darwin (CA 573) inherited the
function of Registrar of Titles under the Northern Territory
Registration Ordinance 1927-1942 from the Lands and Survey Branch of
the Northern Territory Administration. In 1962 the title of the
Courts Office, Darwin (CA 573) was changed to the Courts and Titles
Office to reflect the addition of the new functions.

The Courts and Titles Office carried out a number of functions
including:

Registrar of Births, Deaths and Marriages
Registrar of Companies
Public Trustee

Following changes in the second division structure of the
Attorney-General's Department, the Public Service Board by a
memorandum of 29 July 1964 changed the nomenclature in certain areas
of the Department. This included a change from 'Courts and Titles
Office Northern Territory' to 'Courts and Registration Offices
Northern Territory' This change in title reflected for the first
time in the title, the face that the Office carried out registration
functions. This occurred after the Northern Territory Companies
Ordinance 1963 (No. 43 of 1963), which provided for a Registrar of
Companies, was passed. The Registrar had operated prior to 1963 under the South Australian Companies Act 1892.
