An appeal is to be lodged over the €2million award to a couple who sued claiming they were exposed to toxic chemicals after spray insulation was installed in their Donegal home.

Mr Justice Kevin Cross today in the High Court granted a stay on the full award payout and costs in the event of an appeal providing there is a payment of €600,000 made to Patrick and Anita Duffy.
