Ceist:879 Mr. Ellis asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform when a dealing will be completed for a person (details supplied) in County Sligo. [21428/01]
Written Answers. - Registration of Title.
I am informed by the Registrar of Titles that this dealing refers to an application under section 49 – acquisition of title by virtue of long possession – of the Registration of Title Act, 1964 which was lodged on 16 October 2000. Dealing No. D2000SM008030R refers. 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.
I am further informed that queries issued to the lodging solicitors on 22 August 2001 and the application cannot proceed until these queries have been satisfactorily resolved. However, I can assure the Deputy that, on receipt of a satisfactory reply, the matter will receive further attention in the Land Registry.
