Question:989 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform if he will instruct the Land Registry Office to expedite a dealing for a person (details supplied) in County Mayo. [2071/02]
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 17 November 1999. 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 5 January 2001 and the application cannot proceed until these queries have been satisfactorily resolved. However, I assure the Deputy that, on receipt of a satisfactory reply, the matter will receive further attention in the Land Registry.
