I am informed by the Registrar of Titles and Deeds that the waiting time for the processing of Land Registry dealings is as set out in the tabular statement below. As the Deputy will appreciate, the length of time taken to complete cases varies depending on a number of things including the complexity of the case, the completeness of the documentation forwarded by solicitors, etc. The volume of business being transacted at any stage would also have a bearing on matters. The Deputy may also wish to note that any cases involving urgency are, in accordance with the customer service policy of the Land Registry, dealt with expeditiously.
The figures shown, in the tabular statement below, for Kildare-Wicklow represent the time frame for any case lodged since the roll out of ITRIS, Integrated Title Registration Information System. I have been informed by the Land Registry that pre-ITRIS cases in these areas are taking approximately two years to complete.
The statistics provided in the second column of the tabular statement, not requiring mapping-queries, represent more than 60% of the total intake of cases by the Land Registry.
