Kerry TD calls for 5-year extension to registration of public rights of way

Kerry TD Danny Healy-Rae has called on the Taoiseach to extend the deadline for the registration of public rights of way by 5 years.

Since the introduction of the Land and Conveyancing Law Reform Act 2009, rights of way created by way of long use must now be registered before the 30^th of November this year to protect them.

Deputy Healy-Rae said more time is needed because COVID restrictions are preventing people from travelling to visit solicitors or meet engineers.
