The UK government announced on 11 September 2026 that Neil Sachdev's tenure as Chair of the HM Land Registry Board would be extended for another four years. Minister for Housing and Local Government Baroness Taylor OBE approved the extension, which the announcement said was intended to ensure continuity of experienced leadership on the board.

Sachdev, who was appointed in 2022, said he was proud to continue in the role and to support delivery of the organisation's Strategy 2025+ published the previous year. He cited the registry's values of integrity, innovation, professionalism and assurance, and praised the effort of its more than 7,000 colleagues in improving service. Chief Executive and Chief Land Registrar Iain Banfield described the extension to 2030 as important for stability as the organisation delivers that strategy during a period of significant change and transformation.

The announcement did not set out further details of the terms or the appointment process.
