Vol. 371 No. 2

Written Answers. - Registration of Title.

32.

asked the Minister for Justice the reason a person (details supplied) in County Kerry has not yet received a dealing number in order to transfer a plot from Kerry County Council.

I am informed by the Registrar of Titles that this is an application for the registration of title in connection with the transfer of part of a property. The application was lodged in the Land Registry on 25 February 1987. Because of the large number of applications on hand in the Land Registry it is likely to be some time before registration will be finalised.

The Deputy will, of course, appreciate that it would not be possible to give favourable treatment to any particular application except at the expense of other applications. I am informed, however, that the Land Registry gives priority to applications in respect of which it is brought to its attention that there are special grounds for urgency, such as bridging finance for example. Accordingly a request for expedition in this case will be considered if details of the reasons for urgency are submitted to the Land Registry.
