The High Court has reserved its decision on whether to approve a scheme of arrangement between a Co Wexford company alleged to have supplied animal feed containing harmful dioxins and those suing it arising out of the contamination.

A CO Wexford company alleged to have supplied animal feed containing dioxins is insured for a maximum €6.5 million but expects claims against it to be substantially higher, the Commercial Court has been told.

A COMPANY is being sued for €1.9 million in damages over allegedly selling animal feed containing dioxins to a Co Tyrone-based farmer whose cattle herd later had to be destroyed.
