Learning from Litigation bulletin
The Office of the Planning Regulator (OPR) has released the sixth edition of its ‘Learning from Litigation’ bulletin.
The bulletin highlights key insight from the continually evolving planning and environmental case law. It provides information on important precedents, court decisions and emerging trends with an overview of noteworthy planning cases.
The case selection for this edition of the bulletin was made following recommendations received from the Planning Law Bulletin Steering Group, which includes nominees from the Law Society’s Environmental and Planning Law Committee. Cases include Carrownagowan Concern Group and Ors v An Bord Pleanála and Ors [2024] IECA 234, Harte Peat Limited v the Environmental Protection Agency, Ireland and the Attorney General [2024] IECA 202, John Conway v An Bord Pleanála and Ors [2024] IESC 34, and Hayes Foley v the Environmental Protection Agency and Ors [2024] IECA 162.
