Jackson Way obstructing planning inquiry, declares tribunal

THE Flood Tribunal has declared that the British company, Jackson Way Properties, is now obstructing the progress of the inquiry into alleged planning corruption.

Such a finding could see Jackson Way, which is currently seeking a 47m compensation bill from the State, ultimately being hit with a massive bill for legal costs by the tribunal.

Tribunal chairman, Mr Justice Feargus Flood, said yesterday that it was “manifestly clear” that the company no longer had any intention of assisting the inquiry.
