State told to warn public of Haulbowline health risks
An environmental group has threatened State authorities with a High Court action unless they erect public warning notices about dangerous substances on an island in Cork Harbour.
The Friends of the Irish Environment (FIE) claims Cork County Council and the Department of Agriculture are legally obliged to alert the public about the presence of high levels of toxic materials, including arsenic and lead, on Haulbowline.
