The UK government has announced plans to lift the paywall from large sections of the Land Registry, which will facilitate easier access to information regarding land ownership.

This initiative is expected to improve transparency in land ownership, thereby supporting efforts to optimize the use of green spaces and contribute to net zero targets.

The removal of the paywall could enhance data accessibility for various stakeholders, including urban planners and environmental organizations, impacting future infrastructure and land use strategies.
