Carrickmines Judgement in after Third Delay.

The judgement is expected on Tuesday morning July 25th 2006

This judgement has been delayed and long-awaited.
This is the Supreme Court Appeal taken by Dominic Dunne in relation to the constitutionality of orders given by the Minister for the Environment on the Carrickmine's Castle Complex.

The last delay on the judgement issue occured on the 15th/16th of Feburary 2006.

This judgement will probably directly affect the 38 sites currently being excavated at
the Tara complex. These are in line with the proposed M3 route. The existing, new legislation as it stands
would allow for ministerial orders to demolish, cover or/and remove these sites to allow the road to
extend through the archaeological remains of the Tara landscape.
This is a hugely important and significant judgement and day for Tara.

Heritage Destruction Act !

Fair play to you Dominic and friends. This mob would sell their Mother to the highest bidder.
There are also some nasty stories doing the rounds about courts refusing proceedings to be recorded through a stenographer and other verified accounts of transcripts of hearings getting "lost". It is crucial to get cases before the courts "on the record".

Attend the judgement

I have been asked to pass on the message that people should attend the judgement to show support for Dominic Dunne in his legal battle. This could be a crucial day, not just for Tara, but for heritage in general.
I have had no involvement in this battle at any point or in the court case but I would like to be there to give my own personal and Tara's support on Tuesday.
