2․ Real estate data that the concerned entities determine to be confidential.

2․ Amending article 9 to read as follows:

The competent entity shall prepare lists of real estate whose title is registered based on the registration of the real estate deeds issued pursuant to the provisions of the law, and shall publish them by the appropriate means specified by the regulation, provided that those lists include the details of the ownership registration deed, namely: The real estate number, its location, its area, and its cadastral data.

3․ Amending article 11 to read as follows:

1․ In the event of the filing of a lawsuit related to the initial title registration, as stipulated by article 10 of the law, it must be annotated in the Real Estate Register and the lists of real estate whose title is registered.
