Case against man accused of interfering with power plant construction adjourned

A High Court action against a landowner who is alleged to have jeopardised work on a €300m power generation plant has been adjourned for two weeks.

Endesa Ireland Ltd, which is in the preliminary stages of building a gas turbine power plant at Great Island, Campile, Co Wexford, obtained orders late last week against Michael Murphy, who, it is alleged, has blocked an access road to the 140-acre site and interfered with security fencing in a row over rights of way.
