Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality

Property Services Appeal Board: Chairperson Designate

Ms Dorothy Donovan:

Parties can appeal on a point of law to the High Court. That can involve cost jeopardy. Since my appointment to the board in February 2017, I think it has had four cases that went to the High Court. One was discontinued. In the latest one, the court held in our favour. I think one of the earlier two might have succeeded because it was on a point of law. In fact, that particular case was more to do with an initial decision as opposed to the appeal.
