A recycling firm wants to challenge An Bord Pleanála's refusal to allow it build a waste transfer station over an alleged failure by its then-Deputy Chairperson Paul Hyde to recuse himself from having any role in the decision.

The action has been brought by Country Clean Recycling Unlimited Company, which in 2021 was refused permission by the board to develop a building containing a waste transfer and recycling facility at Courtstown Industrial Estate, Little Island, Co. Cork.
