² Where the re­stric­tion on own­er­ship ceases to ap­ply, the state au­thor­ity or the oth­er pub­lic body must ar­range for the note to be de­leted from the land re­gister. If the state au­thor­ity or the oth­er pub­lic body fails to act, the land re­gister may de­lete the note ex of­fi­cio.

³ The Fed­er­al Coun­cil shall stip­u­late the areas of can­ton­al law in which re­stric­tions on own­er­ship must be noted in the land re­gister. The can­tons may provide for ad­di­tion­al notes. They shall draw up a list of cir­cum­stances re­quir­ing a note, which must be passed on to the Con­fed­er­a­tion.
