Very interesting. It looks as if they are going to use this process and any irregularities found as a leverage to get the licence . So we can rule out any ect claim or probably any actual legal claim unless obvious infringement or interference from minister .( which with Ryan is possible )
They will no doubt focus from June 2020 – 23 January 2025 when Ryan was minister.
(He has a history. For example, in late 2024, Ryan was accused of failing to sign off on a €50 million retrofit scheme announced in 2022
- He also failed to sign off many road developments suspiciously)
By law, the dept must try to get responses out ,even for a large batch of requests by 8 weeks at latest or tell you why they can’t .
Allow another 2 months for analysis.
Let’s hope PRD put the money down for this ( circa €50,000- €100k) and use one of the big Irish law firms. With enough irregularities found and after 7 years waiting there should be . From this sufficient leverage should be available. They should then threaten to sue for costs and damages for further leverage.
