Vol. 512 No. 8
112 Mr. Durkan asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform when a Land Registry dealing will be completed for the transfer of lands at Newtown, Donore, Naas, County Kildare (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [27438/99]
I am informed by the Registrar of Titles that there are two dealings involved in this instance. These dealings refer to two applications under section 49 – acquisition of title by virtue of long possession – of the Registration of Title Act, 1964 which were lodged on 4 October 1999 and 2 November 1999 respectively.
I understand that due to their complicated nature, applications under section 49, which require detailed examination of claims for registration as owners, can take some time to process. Accordingly, it is not possible to estimate a completion date for the applications concerned at this stage.
However, I can assure the Deputy that the Land Registry will deal with these applications without undue delay.
