Question:184 Mr. Aylward asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the progress regarding the registration of land for persons (details supplied) in County Kilkenny. [24716/01]
Written Answers. - Registration of Title.
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 4 July 2001. 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.
I am further informed that queries issued to the lodging solicitors on 26 September 2001 and the application cannot proceed until these queries have been satisfactorily resolved. However, I can assure the Deputy that, on receipt of a satisfactorily reply, the matter will receive further attention in the Land Registry.
