(2)  Where a caveat is lodged against any land which has not yet been brought under the provisions of this Act, that caveat shall not operate to forbid the registration of dealings affecting that land until it becomes registered land.
(3)  For the purposes of according priority to a caveat which has been lodged under the provisions of this Act and is amended subsequent to its date of lodgment —
(a)
where it is materially amended subsequent to its date of notification in the Caveat Index before the land becomes registered land, the caveat shall have priority in accordance with section 49 upon the acceptance of the amendment by the Registrar as having complied with the requirements specified by the Registrar pursuant to section 117; or
(b)
where it is materially amended at any time after its lodgment against the relevant folio, the caveat shall have priority upon the acceptance of the amendment by the Registrar as having complied with the requirements specified by the Registrar pursuant to section 117.
(4)  So long as a caveat remains effective, the Registrar shall not register any dealing which is prohibited by the caveat.
