I will be very brief because I do not have the same expertise as the other two Deputies. I said last week that, in my constituency, commonage would not be a particular issue. It is not uncommon in very old parts of city centres, such as my city, Cork, to have large numbers of unregistered properties. It is quite common to have them right in the core of a city. I am sure the guests will have come across this and will have assisted people with titles and deeds in this regard.
Would the bank that has now left the Irish market have opened the boxes and asked Finders International Ireland to do research on the basis of what it found? It would open the boxes in the first instance.
