It's detailed in this thread: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055562234

I think the deadline for changing your place of registration was last Friday but you should send in the forms anyway. You should change your registration to your current permanent address anyway, who knows how soon the next election may be...

They may well take it on Monday. They've said they will. You'll need to have all the relevant stuff signed and stamped though so I'd suggest doing that tomorrow (Sunday). After Monday you can forget about it.
