I have two questions to seek clarification. The Land Registry, under the auspices of Tailte Éireann, is where the registration happens. Maybe the Minister of State can outline how a new right of way is created. Who has that function? Many of us have experience of the extinguishing of rights of way, which is a function of local authorities. If somebody wanted to create a new right of way, how would it be dealt with?

The vindication of rights of way is the vindication of rights that exist. Whose function is it to ensure that rights of way that exist can be exercised? Does this sit anywhere statutorily?
