The United Kingdom's National Land Information Service (NLIS) www.nlis.org.uk is a public-private partnership between the Company and the Local Government Information House (LGIH) - The UK Council for the National Land (and Property) Information Service. The aim of LGIH is to provide electronically the property information needed by conveyancing solicitors to complete the sale of a property. The NLIS hub provides official Searches from all the Local Authorities in England and Wales, Her Majesty's Land Registry, the Coal Authority, and a number of other data providers. MDA operates the NLIS Hub under licence from LGIH. Customers can electronically access the searches provided by the NLIS Hub via any of the four NLIS Licensed Channels.

MDA plays a key role in NLIS. The Company:

• Built and operates the NLIS Hub, which directly and electronically connects the government data providers to the NLIS retail Channels, whose role is to distribute the search information to customers.
• Operates two of four licensed Channels:
  
  
  • TransAction Online (www.transaction-online.co.uk) and
  • SearchFlow (www.searchflow.co.uk/index.asp).
