It has been held that the legislation does not alter the common law rule that no man can convey a better title than he possesses in so far as any conclusive effect of a certificate is only in favour of a "bona fide" purchaser for valuable consideration. Similarly, a transfer is subject to the equitable doctrine of rectification, and an erroneous entry on title is open to correction. (Anger and Honsberger, 2nd ed., 1985, p. 1608). 1, record 1, English, - equitable%20doctrine%20of%20rectification
