Uber committed to Ireland despite regulatory battle

Uber is confident of its future in Ireland and remains fully committed to its Limerick centre despite a legislative impasse that has halted the introduction of its services here.

The San Francisco-headquartered company cut the ribbon on its €4m Limerick base in January but has encountered regulatory roadblocks in its efforts to launch its ride-sharing service since entering the Irish market.

New accounts filed for Uber Technologies Ltd highlight the uncertainty its regulatory battle has created for the company here.
