256 Mr. Finucane asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform if he will expedite the establishment of title for a person (details supplied) in County Clare. [4037/01]
I am informed by the Registrar of Titles that this dealing refers to an application under section 49, that is, acquisition of title by virtue of long possession, of the Registration of Title Act, 1964, which was lodged on 20 October 2000. 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 precise completion date at this stage. However, the application is receiving attention.
