Anti-austerity councillor settles compensation case

The case taken by Lil O’Donnell, elected to Cork City Council in 2014, was due to go into its second day at the High Court in Cork yesterday but Ms Justice Caroline Costello was told the case had settled and could be struck out.
It was also struck out in terms of the issue between the defendants in the civil action — the HSE and the householder for whom Ms O’Donnell had been working as a home help at the time.
