Vol. 571 No. 1
1165 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform if the Land Registry Office will expedite an application for a person (details supplied) in County Mayo; and when this application will be completed. [20222/03]
I am informed by the Registrar of Titles that this is an application under section 49 (that is, acquisition of title by virtue of long possession) of the Registration of Titles Act 1964, which was lodged on 7 August 2003. Dealing No. D2003SM006606N 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 can assure the Deputy that the application is receiving attention in the Land Registry.
Question No. 1166 answered with Question No. 1158.
