A High Court judge has refused to grant an emergency injunction to the residents of Dundrum village, Co Tipperary, who want to stop asylum seekers being accommodated in a local hotel.

Mr Justice David Holland said no case had been made to grant an ex partie injunction where only one side is represented. He said the application simply did not have the necessary urgency.
