Merchants Quay Ireland considers appeal on supervised injection facility planning refusal

The future of the proposed supervised injecting centre hangs in the balance as Merchants Quay Ireland considers whether or not to appeal a decision refusing it planning permission.

MQI is weighing up if it can afford the cost of appealing the refusal by Dublin City Council to An Bord Pleanála. Some estimates have put the legal costs at around €30,000 to €40,000.
