Vol. 490 No. 1

Written Answers - Registration of Title.

Michael Ring

Ceist:

71 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform if he will instruct the Land Registry to expedite a dealing for a person (details supplied) in County Mayo. [9710/98]

I am informed by the Registrar of Titles that this dealing refers to an application under section 49, that is, an acquisition of title by virtue of long possession, of the Registration of Title Act, 1964, which was lodged on 9 June 1997. I understand that due to their complicated nature, applications under section 49, which require detailed examination of the applicant's claim for registration as owner, take some time to process and it is not possible at this stage to give an estimated time for completion of this case. I assure the Deputy that the Land Registry will do everything possible to expedite the resolution of this application.
