An Bord Pleanála to concede judicial review amid Paul Hyde conflict of interest claims 

An Bord Pleanála is to concede a legal challenge in a case being investigated for a potential conflict of interest on the part of the board’s deputy chairperson Paul Hyde. 

The judicial review legal challenge was based on the allegation that Mr Hyde had not declared a conflict of interest when involved in a large-scale planning decision on the northside of Cork city.
