CHRIS offers users the convenience of searching through the references of post-1995 land registry documents in many ways including: name, document number and year. When a document reference is located, the user can take the information and quickly identify the corresponding conveyances, liens and deeds in the registry books.

"Technology is revolutionizing the delivery of services across the Island," said Minister Mella. "The implementation of CHRIS is a key stepping stone to other e-government initiatives and has already proven valuable to users in both Queens and Kings counties." The Provincial Treasurer continued to say, "A new land-related information application on the Internet is the next phase in moving toward a fully electronic system. Plans are now underway to provide this alternative for those who prefer to do business online."
