Sean Fleming
Ceist:467 Deputy Sean Fleming asked the Minister for Justice and Equality if his attention has been drawn to the difficulties that have arisen following the implementation of the Property Services Regulation Act 2011 in relation to auctioneer’s licences which came into effect on 30 May without sufficient advance notice for various practitioners involved in the area and that many of them had already placed advertisements and incurred significant costs in renewing their auctioneers licences in respect of court sittings to be held in during the month of June and that now these cannot proceed as the matter is being dealt with through the Property Services Regulatory Authority and not through the courts and that large numbers of auctioneers and solicitors have incurred expenditure in terms of putting advertising notices in papers and so on because they had to have the notice in the papers 28 days in advance of the court sitting; if he will make some arrangement to compensate persons for costs incurred in addition to the stamp duty and that the courts will re-fund in respect of these applications; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
