Vol. 510 No. 3
360 Mr. Perry asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform if Land Registry will expedite a dealing for a person (details supplied) in County Leitrim in view of the fact that all documents have been lodged and the property is ready for sale; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [22283/99]
I am informed by the Registrar of Titles that this dealing refers to an application under section 49, that is, acquisition of title by virtue of long possession of the Registration of Title Act 1964, which was lodged on 26 February 1999. 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 for the application concerned at this stage.
However, I can assure the Deputy that the Land Registry will deal with this matter without undue delay.
