The Property Registration Authority (PRA) is responsible for registering ownership of land in the State, including appurtenant rights attaching to land such as rights of access and rights of way. This statutory function is conferred on the PRA under the Registration of Deeds and Title Acts 1964 and 2006. These Acts make provision for the making of more detailed statutory rules setting out the procedures to be followed when registering land, including the ownership proofs that the PRA requires in order to complete the registration process. These statutory rules are set out collectively in the Land Registration Rules and are accessible on the PRA website (www.prai.ie).
Statutory responsibility for the PRA, and land registration policy, now rests with the Minister and Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage.
