        (c)     issue to a person who holds a share in the estate, or the entire estate, under the Unit Titles Act 2001 , section 163 (1) (a) a certificate of title for that share or estate, subject to subsection (2); and

        (d)     enter on each folio of the register in relation to the certificate of title so issued a memorial of any mortgage or easement to which, by force of section 17, the lease is subject and, if it is subject to 2 or more mortgages or easements, enter the memorials in such a way as to preserve their priority.

    (2)     The registrar-general may, in his or her discretion, refuse to issue a certificate of title under subsection (1) (c) to the person who was the lessee of a unit until the duplicate copy of the certificate of title for that unit has been lodged with the registrar-general.
