Committee on Infrastructure and National Development Plan Delivery

Judicial Review and Appeals Process: Engagement with Courts Service

2:00 am

Ms Angela Denning:

Into the list, yes. We had 241 cases last year, and I think it is 108 so far this year. Some 65% of those cases are against An Coimisiún Pleanála. We have 67 cases against residential developments, 11 against wind farms, nine with regard to emissions, seven with regard to agricultural infrastructure, 19 communications mast cases, 15 quarries cases and 17 transport cases at the moment. That is the rough breakdown of the list. In 2024, we had 241 cases in, with 253 disposed of. They were cases from the previous year or whatever, and 58 written judgments were delivered. So far in 2025, the judges have delivered 42 written judgments.
