Clause 77

Upon fulfilling his obligations under a registered mortgage or charge, a mortgagor or chargor shall be entitled, subject to section 22 of the Conveyancing and Law of Property Act [Cap. 61], to obtain from the proprietor of the mortgage or charge a registrable discharge.

A mortgagor or chargor shall not be bound to account to any person who has acquired an interest in the mortgage or charge unless the transfer or other instrument whereby that person became entitled has been registered and the mortgagor or chargor has been notified in writing of its registration.

For the purpose of enforcing the right to obtain a discharge conferred by this section, the mortgagor shall be deemed to have an equity of redemption.
