@cityworker I know this is an old thread but I'm going through the exact same situation right now. What did you do in the end?
I would be asking questions to the original solicitor, he has failed here in his legal duties to ensure the clearance certificate for the NPPR was produced at time of sale. I have a friend who has gone through hell recently trying to obtain this certificate, it held up her house sale for three months.
The Original Poster was not actually required to obtain an NPPR exemption certificate at the time of purchase. This was a 2011 transaction and the requirement to produce such a cert on a sale only came into law on 1st January 2012.
The original solicitor therefore did not fail in his duty, no such duty existed in 2011.
Other hard cases, based on different facts, might possibly involve a solicitor slip-up, but not in this case;
The laws relating to NPPR, Household Charge and LPT were badly drafted and will from time to time create conveyancing problems even with no fault on the part of the solicitor.
Maybe contact local electoral representative and raise a Dail question.
