A young girl who claimed to have suffered a temporary exacerbation of her asthma condition after a noxious fumes incident at a waterpark has settled her High Court action for €40,000.

Lauren Lodge, her counsel Michael Byrne SC told the High Court, was 11 years of age when the chlorine incident happened at the Funtasia Waterpark in Co. Louth as she visited the swimming pool area with her family.
