Family Reparations & Remedy Roadmap#

Current documentary position — 25 September 2026#

Subject

Record

Current position

Parcel A / Parcel B

The Two Parcels · 1877 Agreement · 1938–39 records

Mary (Nancy) Williams’s c.1974 witness statement (Mary (Nancy) Williams testimony) records the 1877 Bute sale to Daniel Thomas that separated the house parcel from the eastern fields, and the 1939 plan shows Parcel B only [EV-0023]. The case drawn from that evidence is that only the fields passed to WGR and BP. No court has ever examined this. The 1938 conveyance and 1939 tenancy plans are being scanned for the Wiki.

1982–83 first registration

WA231076 / WA240304 · 30 July 2026 HMLR document schedule

The 30 July schedule lists 43 documents. The 31 December 1969 root conveyance and a free-standing 1971 abstract are not listed.

HMLR complaint

25 May 2026 stage-2 decision

Fresh remedy architecture — 6 October 2026#

Reframing: the case is now divided into… … read more

Reframing: the case is now divided into separate questions: title, registration, judgment, limitation, woodland recovery and public-authority accountability. No single limitation argument is being asked to do all the work.

  • Limitation Act 1980 s.32: qualifying fraud, deliberate concealment or mistake can postpone limitation until discovery or when it could reasonably have been discovered.

  • Takhar: a fraud-based challenge requires evidence that fraud affected the obtaining of the judgment; earlier document loss alone is insufficient.

  • CPR 52.30: reopening a final appeal requires real injustice, exceptional circumstances and no alternative effective remedy.

  • CPR 31.16: pre-action disclosure may be available where its conditions are met.

  • Registered land: LRA 2002 s.96 disapplies ordinary Limitation Act s.15 recovery-of-land limitation against registered estates and Schedule 6 governs adverse possession.

Woodland: where primary evidence proves a precise woodland polygon was already family land, the requested remedy can be framed as declaration/rectification/recovery rather than purchase, subject to the 1994 transfer, consideration, notice and purchaser-protection analysis.
