Pac to review rejection of Cork city housing development 

Dossier alleges irregularities regarding An Bord Pleanála decision to refuse planning for development on Distillery Quarter in Blackpool

The Ditch website previously reported that deputy chair of ABP Paul Hyde part-owns a plot of land at Pope’s Hill in Blackpool, the site of a residential apartment block just 50m from the refused SHD.

A dossier of information regarding a decision by An Bord Pleanála to refuse planning permission for a housing development in Cork City has been referred to the Public Accounts Committee.

The memorandum, seen by the Irish Examiner, details a number of alleged irregularities regarding the An Bord Pleanála decision to refuse permission to a proposed strategic housing development at the Distillery Quarter in Blackpool.
