This Act provides for the registration of fences and provides with respect to trespass on land of cattle and other animals. Fences, whether artificial or natural, may be registered with the Registrar of Lands. Where the Registrar is satisfied that the fence would no longer effectively exclude trespass on land by quiet cattle and horses, the Registrar shall cancel the registration. An action of trespass can be lodged only if land is protected by a registered fence.
