ABSTRACT
The Sale of Goods Act 1979 uses two words to denote rights of ownership, namely, ‘title’ and ‘property’. ‘Title’ is mainly concerned with the right to sell the goods, as in the implied condition in s 12.1 Where the transfer of ownership rights is concerned, the Act refers to the ‘passing of property’. The rules relating to this are set out in ss 16-18 of the Act.
