The Supreme Court has decided on the allocation of costs related to an appeal concerning a High Court order that quashed a decision by An Bord Pleanála to grant development permission. The appeal, initially dismissed by the Supreme Court, involved the notice party's challenge to the High Court's decision. The Supreme Court rejected the notice party's request to limit the applicant's awarded costs to 66% and to exclude costs for opposing the application for leave to appeal. The Court also determined that no costs should be awarded for the unsuccessful application for leave to appeal to the Court of Appeal, varying the High Court's order accordingly.
