Abstract
The null tetrad formalism of Newman and Penrose is used to investigate empty space-times which are algebraically special on a given world line. It is found that, when the world line is timelike, the space-time admits a congruence which is geodesic and shear-free on the world line. A similar result is obtained for those empty space-times which are algebraically special on a given space like hypersurface.
