There is ongoing legal action here but it seems bizarre that councils take legal action against closed companies. The legal action is one of the longest-running High Court cases in history of the State, which is frustrating for everyone involved. There seem to be significantly different figures emerging. The figure of €50 million was provided by the county manager to councillors at a county council meeting. Ms Tallon is saying she expects that figure to be much lower.
