Registration of deeds is extremely important as it constitutes the third stage of the . Following the enactment of the Registration Act 1617 by the Parliament of the Kingdom of Scotland, feudal grants and dispositions were required to be registered in the General Register of Sasines in order to give the proprietor . These registration requirements survived along with Scots law's independence following the constitution of the Kingdom of Great Britain following The Acts of Union 1707, and creation of subsequent United Kingdom states in 1800 and 1922. Today, public registration is still required in order to validly transfer real rights in Scots law. The public land registers are now entrusted to the Registers of Scotland, an agency of the Scottish government tasked with compiling and maintaining records relating to property and other legal documents. The executive of this agency is known as the Keeper of the Registers of Scotland, often termed simply the Keeper and is currently Jennifer Henderson. The RoS currently maintain 20 public registers relating to land and other legal documents. (en)
