Threat of evacuation for Longboat Quay residents lifted

The court order stalls the threat of evacuation hanging over about 600 residents from 298 apartments in the Dublin docklands.
The Longboat Quay management company, which represented the residents, challenged the fire safety notice issued by Dublin Fire Brigade demanding work, including the installation of a smoke ventilation system and fire prevention materials, to begin by November 1. The notice was issued on behalf of Dublin City Council.
