A plant and machinery firm wants to mount a legal challenge to a compulsory purchase order granted to Uisce Éireann as part of its initiative to improve water supply to Adare, Co Limerick, ahead of the 2027 Ryder Cup.

Uisce Éireann says the compulsory purchase of lands owned by Houlihans Machinery Services Ltd at Castleroberts, Adare, is necessary for the Adare Rationalisation Project, according to documents submitted to the High Court by the firm.
