Vol. 420 No. 3

Written Answers. - Land Registration.

Jim Higgins

Ceist:

85 Mr. J. Higgins asked the Minister for Justice the reason for the delay in the registration of the change of ownership of property (details supplied) in County Mayo.

I am informed by the Registrar of Titles that it was found necessary to raise queries on the application in question and that these queries were satisfactorily discharged last month.

Due to the pressure of work in the Land Registry generally, finalisation of an application of the kind in question here would in the ordinary way take some time. I am informed however that it is the policy of the Land Registry to try, as far as possible, to expedite cases in which it can be established that special circumstances of urgency exist. Any such cases will be specially considered if details of the reasons for urgency are submitted to the Registrar of Titles.
