An Taisce seeks more time to prepare for nitrates challenge
The first hearing of An Taisce’s nitrates case will now instead take place in mid-June with a substantive hearing now unlikely before the autumn, a spokesperson said.
An Taisce has sought and was granted more time to prepare for its nitrates case against the Minister for Housing, in which the IFA and now the ICMSA are notice parties.
The case, which had been due before the High Court on Monday, will instead now have its first hearing in mid-June.
It is likely a substantive hearing over An Taisce’s legal action against the Government’s introduction of the Nitrates Action Programme (NAP) and the extension of the derogation will now not take place until the autumn, a spokesperson for An Taisce said.
