Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 16 June 2004
192 Mr. Perry asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform if the Land Registry Office will take action on the application of a person (details supplied) in County Donegal; if it will be prioritised; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [17992/04]
View answerI am informed by the registrar of titles that this is an application under section 49 — acquisition of title by virtue of long possession — of the Registration of Titles Act, 1964 which was lodged on 6 May 2004. Dealing Number D2004WS004694B 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 and will be completed as soon as possible.
