Vol. 432 No. 2
77 Mr. Finucane asked the Minister for Justice if she can regularise the situation for a person (details supplied) in County Limerick who has applied for first registration which was lodged with the Land Registry on 5 April 1993, as this person is anxious to expedite the process to regularise the transfer of land to members of his family; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
I am informed by the Registrar of Titles that due to pressure of work generally, there is at present a delay in dealing with applications of the type in question.
I am also informed, however, that it is the policy of the Land Registry to try, in so far as possible, to expedite cases in which it can be established that special circumstances of urgency exist. Any such cases will be specially considered if details of the reasons for urgency are submitted to the Registrar of Titles.
