It is unlikely that he will reply to the questions as promised. I do apologise to him for assuming that he is a man of his word. I have been holding back two critical arguments: 1. In all of the 450+ cases the subregistrars had issued the sale deeds to the foreigners. Legalities should have questioned before doing so. To enquire now about the circumstances of purchase is taking retrospective action. 2. Two years ago the Goa Assembly passed a Bill which empowered subregistrars to refuse registration of property sold to foreigners. This required the President's assent which has recently been refused. The Goa Government then requested special status and this too looks set for refusal. See Economic Times, 29 June 2009 at http://goanvoiceuk.wordpress.com/2009/06/29/goa-seeks-special-powers-to-cont rol-land-sale-to-foreigners-economic-times-29-jun-2009-page-4/ Yet the Goa Govt is continuing denying the sale, transfer or registration rights to foreigners. And don't forget that our George claims to have a bias in FAVOR of law and order! Eddie
