Dismay as Cork incinerator decision is deferred

An Bord Pleanála was supposed to have made up its mind on the project by July 12 last year, in the wake of an oral hearing, but failed to do so. At the time, the board said this was due to “the complexity of the issues involved”.
It set a new deadline of October 26 to decide on the €160m hazardous and municipal waste incinerator in Ringaskiddy, but this was deferred to January 24, 2017.
