Vol. 557 No. 2
258 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform if he will instruct the Land Registry Office to expedite a dealing on a folio for a person (details supplied) in County Mayo; and when this transaction will be completed. [21828/02]
I am informed by the Registrar of Titles that an application under section 49 of the Registration of Titles Act, 1964, acquisition of title by virtue of long possession, was lodged on 14 May 2002; dealing number D2002SM004682G refers. 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 at this stage. However, I assure the Deputy that the application is receiving attention in the Land Registry.
