    "content": "Amendment of 37. Section 93 of the Land Registration Act is deleted and section 93 replaced by the following new section 93− of No. 3 of 2012. “Subject to any written law to the contrary, if a spouse obtains an interest in land during the subsistence of a marriage for the co-ownership and use of spouses or all spouses, such property shall be deemed to be matrimonial property and shall be dealt with under the Matrimonial Property Act.” As a Committee, we are trying to ensure that the law is applied even where there is joint ownership. It is important to realize that joint ownership does not mean equal shareholding. It is necessary to realize that there are things we call co-owning a property. We are amending Section 93 of the Land Registration Act and bringing in the new sentence that subject it to any written law."
