The issuing of the n ew edition of the
Objections and Requisitions on Title
is a very significant event for all
c o n v e y a n c i ng practitioners. The
Co n v e y a n c i ng Comm i t t ee is c o n f i d e nt
that the new edition will considerably
assist practitioners in c o ndu c t i ng their
c o n v e y a n c i ng work.
The n ew edition is the product of very
lengthy and detailed work by the
Co n v e y a n c i ng Commi t t e e. Wh i le
every memb er of the Comm i t t ee
contributed to the revision, the main
drafting and research work i n v o l v ed
was undertaken by a special task force
appointed by the Commi t t e e. This task
force was ably led by
Maeve
Hayes
and also c omp r i s ed
Vivienne
Bradley,
Brendan McDonnell, Aine Lynch
and
John
Gore-Grimes.
The profession has due c au se to be
indebted to the memb e rs of the task
force for their dedicated work in
carrying out this project wh i ch truly
was a monumental task.
The Comm i t t ee is also at an advanced
stage with its revision of the S o c i e t y 's
Co n v e y a n c i ng Handbook.
