Campaigners will seek to have planning permission quashed for the Cork harbour incinerator after the High Court found on Friday that An Bord Pleanála's decision was biased.

Mr Justice David Barniville also found in favour of Cork Harbour Alliance for a Safe Environment (Chase), in relation to arguments made concerning the interpretation of Strategic Infrastructure Development provisions of the 2000 Planning Act.
