In December 2023, an Expert Group on Conveyancing and Probate was convened by the Taoiseach, pursuant to Action 101 of the Housing for All Action Plan (November 2023) and asked to report by end-June 2024.
The Group was asked to review conveyancing and probate processes in Ireland from a user-perspective and recommend changes, implementable quickly and easily, to reduce costs and delays for home-purchasers.
A major objective underpinning the Group’s work was to maximise the available housing stock, by avoiding having homes lying empty because they are caught in lengthy and inefficient conveyancing or probate transactions.
An Implementation Group will now be established to proceed with the Group’s recommendations.
