Conveyance

A written document transferring property from one owner to the next. Most often, conveyance is applied to real estate; that is, when one sells his/her house, he/she conveys the deed to the next owner. Conveyance may also apply, however, to the transfer of bulk commodities. Depending on local law and practice, all parties involved in a conveyance (or their attorneys) must be present and literally trade documents to effect the change in ownership.

Amongst other things, the Rule tried to define the term 'acting as a conveyancer' (which was found in the Queensland Law Society Act 1930) (72) as 'drawing, preparing, filing for registration on behalf of any person of (a) any deed [or] (b) any instrument in writing relating to real estate'.
