Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 18 December 2018
648. Deputy Peter Burke asked the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government if the name on a title deed for a person (details supplied) in County Cork is as stated; if not, when same will be rectified; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [52759/18]
View answerUnder the Registration of Deeds and Title Act 2006, the Property Registration Authority (PRA) was established as and from 4 November 2006. The PRA replaced the Registrar of Deeds and Titles as the registering authority in relation to property registration in Ireland and, subject to the above Act, is independent in the performance of its functions.
A service for Oireachtas members was introduced in 2006 through which information can be obtained on the current status of applications to the PRA, such as the case referred to. This provides a speedy, efficient and cost effective system through which the PRA can address queries of this kind.
The Deputy's query has been forwarded to the PRA for attention and direct reply via the above mentioned service.
