Developers warned to meet deadlines in Priory Hall case

The developers behind Priory Hall have been warned that any failure to meet weekly deadlines on fire safety works will be considered a breach of a court order.

High Court President Nicholas Kearns has also asked banks and lending institutions to take account of the unprecedented situation of mortgage holders who find themselves evicted from the Donaghmede development.

The High Court President has made it clear that essential fire safety works at Priory Hall will be policed.

The last of the 249 residents evacuated their high risk homes yesterday and many were in the packed court today when the judge thanked them for their "courage and dignity".

Dublin City Council has been ordered to pay the cost of their temporary accommodation as well as storage expenses.

President Kearns has asked mortgage lenders to take account of this unprecedented situation.

This afternoon Priory Hall developer Tom McFeely is to hand in a detailed statement outlining his financial position.

While work is due to start Monday fears remain that he does not have the means to finish the job.
