Irish minister condemns misuse of judicial reviews delaying vital infrastructure projects.
Irish Minister Patrick O'Donovan has criticized the misuse of judicial reviews, calling it "nasty," as legal challenges delay critical infrastructure projects like flood relief, bypasses, and housing developments.
Speaking on RTÉ radio, he cited prolonged delays in areas including County Cork, Galway, and Adare, where communities faced ongoing sewage issues and traffic congestion due to objections driven by local opposition.
O'Donovan highlighted systemic issues, including NIMBYism, and called for urgent reform to balance public interest with legal processes, noting the problem predates the current government.
