324. To ask the Minister for Housing, Planning, and Local Government if the historical 25” ordinance survey map for folio No. WD1515 is conclusive proof of the boundary of this folio number; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [28101/20]

I am advised that with regard to the description of registered land on the current Property Registration Authority map and also for all registrations mapped on historical 25” Ordnance Survey maps predating the digitisation of the map record, Section 85 of the Registration of Title Act 1964, as amended by Section 62 of the Registration of Deeds and Title Act 2006, provides as follows:

“Except as provided by this Act, neither the description of land in a register nor its identification by reference to a registry map is conclusive as to its boundaries or extent.”
