Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 7ú lá de mí Bealtaine, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1976 bhí ocht bhfear SAS ar héileacaptar go rúndacht ag dul ar ais chuig an Tuaisceart de bharr gur bhannaigh siad iad. I 2004 fuair daoine amach go raibh daoine a raibh ag obair ag AIB ag fáil níos mó airgead óna chustaiméirí nuair a bhí siad ag fáil airgead ó thír eile. I 2010 bhí sé ceadaithe do Yeagher LTD chun ionad siopadóireacht a thógáil in aice leis an Hibernian Meat Plant I nDurlas. Thug an Bord Pleanála cead don áit le siopaí, oifigí agus bialann éagsúla. I 2012 bhí daoine a raibh ina chónaí sa chontae an-ámharach de bharr gur bhuaigh siad níos mó ná 1.8 milliún euro le Prize Bonds. De réir an chomhlacht bhuaigh daoine sa chontae nach mór 2 milliún euro le duine amháin a bhuaigh 1 milliún euro. Sin ABBA le Fernando – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 1976. Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 2000 chuaigh Britney Spears chuig uimhir a haon sa Bhreatain lena amhrán Oops I Did It Again. Scríobh Max Martin agus Rami Yacoub an t-amhrán, na scríbhneoirí céanna a scríobh a amhrán Baby One More Time. I 2003 chuir máinlia dlí ar 50 Cent de bharr nár íoc sé bille leighis. Dúirt an dochtúir gur tháinig 50 Cent agus a cairde chuig an t-ospideál le créacht urchar I 2000 agus dúirt sé nár íoc sé a bille a raibh 20 míle dollar cé gur chuir sé cheist air cúpla uair. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh Mr Beast I Meiriceá I 1998 agus rugadh Tommy Fury sa Bhreatain ar an lá seo I 1999 agus seo chuid de na rudaí a rinne sé. Beidh mé ar ais libh amárach le heagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo. Welcome back to another edition of Ar An Lá Seo on the 7th of May, with me Lauren Ní Loingsigh 1976: 8 sas men were airlifted secretly back to the north by helicopter late last night after being charged and bailed in the special criminal court. 2004: staff at a unit within AIB, the largest bank in the state discovered two years prior that the bank was over charging its customers for foreign exchange transactions. 2010 - YEAGHER Ltd has been given the all-clear to build a major shopping and office center on the site of the old Hibernian Meats plant in Thurles. An Bord Pleanala gave the green light for a mixed-use neighborhood centre made up of shops, office units, a restaurant, a wellness center  2012 - Tipperary residents are some of the luckiest people in the country, having won over €1.8 million with Prize Bonds. According to the Prize Bond Company's 2011 annual report, Tipperary's total winnings of €1.8 million with one Tipperary resident winning the €1 million prize.  That was ABBA with Fernando – the biggest song on this day in 1976. Onto music news on this day In 2000 Britney Spears went to No.1 on the UK singles chart with 'Oops!... I Did It Again'. Written and produced by hit-makers Max Martin and Rami Yacoub, who had previously collaborated with Spears on '...Baby One More Time'. 2003 A US surgeon sued 50 Cent over an unpaid medical bill. The doctor claimed 50 Cent and his friend turned up at a hospital with multiple gunshot wounds in 2000, but said the rapper never paid the $20,000 he owed for treatment despite being asked several times. And finally celebrity birthdays on this day – YouTuber Mr Beast was born in America in 1998 and social media star Tommy Fury was born in the UK on this day in 1999 and this is some of his stuff. I'll be back with you tomorrow with another edition of Ar An Lá Seo.

An environmental scientist involved in a judicial review against the proposed Ennis Data Centre insists the facility is no closer to coming to fruition despite a recent high court judgement. Last week, Justice Richard Humphreys ruled that An Bord Pleanála's error not to consider a single bat in a barn near the the proposed Tulla Road Campus should not stop the €1.2bn development. This is only the first phase of the judicial review, next the court must decide if planners followed due legal process when assessing environmental impacts, after that it will be referred back to An Bord Pleanála for a new planning decision. Ennis resident and appellant Colin Doyle has been telling Clare FM's Daragh Dolan that he believes the plans are ludicrous.

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 18ú lá de mí an Mhárta, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1973 tháinig na Ulster Defence Association amach ag rá go raibh siad freagrach as an phléasc ag teach I nDún na nGall. I 2002 tháinig an nuacht amach go raibh athchóiriú I RTÉ agus de bharr sin dúradh go mbeadh a lán daoine ag caill a phoist I gcúpla lá. I 2006 bhí an treabhdóireacht ar siúil sa chontae. Chuaigh a lán daoine chuig an imeacht an bhliain sin de bharr go raibh siad ag cheiliúradh 41 bhliain. I 2010 dhiúltaigh An Bord Pleanála Aldi nua san Aonach Urmhumhan. Nuair a tháinig an nuacht amach ní raibh na daoine sa bhaile sásta leis. Sin Enrique Iglesias le Hero – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 2002. Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 1972 chuaigh Neil Young chuig uimhir a haon lena amhrán Heart Of Gold. D'fhan sé ar uimhir a haon I gcóir 3 seachtain. Agus tháinig an t-amhrán óna chéad albam Harvest. I 2013 tháinig an nuacht amach go raibh albam uimhir a 25 ag David Bowie, The Next Day, an t-albam a dhíol is tapúla sa Bhreatain an bhliain sin. Bhí sé a naoú halbam a chuaigh chuig uimhir a haon. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh aisteoir Lilly Collins sa Bhreatain I 1989 agus rugadh amhránaí Adam Levine I gCalifornia ar an lá seo I 1979 agus seo chuid de a amhrán. Beidh mé ar ais libh amárach le heagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo.

Last week a high-profile residential property scheme for Dundrum village in Dublin, that would have delivered 881 apartments and a mix of commercial units, was rejected by An Bord Pleanála. The scheme had first been proposed in 2021 by Hammerson and Allianz who between them owned the land. In a rejection letter the board was strong in its language noting the excessive density, height and scale, together with its “monolithic appearance”. And that it would have had an overbearing impact on neighbouring residential properties. This decision prompted Cliff Taylor of the Irish Times to write a column on the issue and its relevance to the housing crisis here. He joins host Ciarán Hancock on this week's episode of Inside Business. Also joining the show is Tom Phillips, an experienced planning consultant who has been involved in a number of large development applications, but not the one for Dundrum. He gives his thoughts on how the planning system works, the role of planning consultants, and the contradictions in the current system that are holding us back as we seek to break the log jam of the housing crisis.Produced by John Casey with JJ Vernon on sound.

FuturEnergy Ireland has submitted a planning application to An Bord Pleanála for Scart Mountain Wind Farm. The renewable energy project is located approximately 4km northeast of Cappoquin in Co. Waterford. The wind farm planning application, which includes 15 turbines, a 110kV substation and ancillary works, was made by Futurenergy Scart Mountain DAC on behalf of FuturEnergy Ireland, a joint venture company formed by Coillte and ESB. The company is also submitting a planning application for the grid connection route for the Scart Mountain project in the coming weeks, which comprises 16km of cabling to the existing Dungarvan substation. Scart Mountain Wind Farm would support the local economy by contributing annual rates and providing a Community Benefit Fund. If consented and constructed as designed, the project would contribute a minimum of €540,000 per annum to a Community Benefit Fund for 15 years and a further €270,000 per annum for the operational lifetime of the wind farm. The 'lifetime' fund is an exclusive FuturEnergy Ireland initiative that brings the total contribution to the local area to approximately €12 million during the operational period. Annual local authority rates contributions are estimated at more than €0.5m per annum, while the construction period would support up to 100 jobs with two or three long-term technical employees required. Scart Mountain Wind Farm has the potential to combat climate change by contributing towards the national target of producing 80% of electricity from renewable sources by 2030. If approved and constructed as proposed, it would save between 61,350 tonnes and 77,694 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions annually. Ireland spends €1 million an hour buying fossil fuels from other countries. This enormous sum of money is urgently needed in other areas such as housing and healthcare, education and employment. Projects such as Scart Mountain Wind Farm have the capacity to strengthen our energy independence and security of supply by providing clean, homegrown electricity, which will also lower fuel bills. Emer Campbell, Project Manager at FuturEnergy Ireland, says: "This planning application marks an important milestone in our commitment to delivering renewable energy solutions that support Ireland's transition to a more sustainable future. "If you consider that a single rotation of one turbine would power a typical home for 12 to 16 hours, Scart Mountain Wind Farm has the potential to contribute significantly to national renewable energy targets. The project would also create local opportunities through a substantial community benefit fund, local rates payments and employment." Planning documents will be available to view at http://www.scartmountainplanning.ie, on An Bord Pleanála's website at www.pleanala.ie and in the office of Waterford County Council. The deadline for submissions has been extended by nine days to allow for the Christmas period. For more information about this project, please visit www.scartmountainwindfarm.ie. This website also provides access to a Virtual Exhibition, which includes detailed project information and photomontages that show the proposed turbines.

It's hoped a new era of development is on the way for Newmarket-On-Fergus. An Bord Pleanála has rejected an appeal from Kilfenora Engineer Michael Duffy, which stated Uisce Éireann's plans to upgrade the village's wastewater treatment plant were a "blatant circumvention of planning and environmental legislation". The project, which is aiming to end the discharge of effluent into Lough Gash through the construction of a new pumping station and enhanced water mains, has been on hold since last November. Newmarket-On-Fergus Fianna Fáil Councillor David Griffin says it's vital for the community's future.

Jerry spoke to Independent councillor Brendan Cronin about the development which An Bord Pleanála has given the go ahead for at Port Road and St Margaret’s Road.

Time for a Change of Government.The southern general election was called last Friday. In just over two weeks' time 174 Teachtaí Dála (TDs) will be elected to the Dáil – an increase of 14 over the number elected in the 2020 general election.On Sunday I was in Dublin for the Save Moore Street rally but afterwards I was in Caledon Road and St. Mary's Road in East Wall with a Sinn Féin canvas team urging voters to give their number 1 vote to Mary Lou McDonald and their number 2 vote to Janice Boylan. The response was very good.Judicial Review lodged in defence of Moore StreetThe battle to save the 1916 Moore Street Battlefield site has entered a new and critical phase with the decision by the Moore Street Preservation Trust to seek leave for a judicial review of the decision by An Bord Pleanála to allow the developer's plan to proceed. Almost two decades after the campaign to protect this important historic part of the Easter 1916 revolutionary story the campaign has reached a decisive moment.New Mural in support of PalestiniansAt the weekend a new mural was unveiled in Andersonstown in west Belfast highlighting the shared experience of struggle and solidarity between the peoples of Ireland and Palestine. Well done to Marty Lyons and Michael Doherty and the organisers.

Prison Poems by Bobby SandsIn a recent interview Christy Moore remarked that the death of Bobby Sands robbed us of a great writing talent. Christy was praising the quality of the work Bobby created in the harsh conditions he endured. He was making the point that you can only imagine what Bobby might have gone on to produce in different circumstances where his creative imagination could have been nurtured and not repressed. But of course this was not to be. Bobby led the second hunger strike in the H-Blocks of Long Kesh and he was the first of the ten men who fasted to death in that awful summer of 1981. Rally to Defend Moore St this weekendThe campaign to protect the 1916 Moore St Battlefield site from demolition is moving up a gear. As regular readers will know An Bord Pleanála  - the planning authority in the South – gave the go ahead recently for the Hammerson development plan which will see much of this historic site reduced to rubble.Irish government fails PalestiniansMore massacres. More children dead and maimed. More civilians killed by the Israeli government in a series of deadly assaults in Gaza and Lebanon. Health workers, journalists, and children continue to be the preferred targets for a right wing Israeli government that is being armed, funded and empowered by its western allies.

ON Saturday night I was privileged to attend the oíche mhór Ghlór na Móna in Belfast's City Hall. The event was to celebrate twenty years of this amazing Irish language initiative made up mostly of and aimed at young people in the Upper Springfield area. It was a great night. Packed out with young Gaeilgeoirí. But there was also a good clatter of veteran campaigners. The pioneers who gave us the Shaws Road Gaeltacht, An Chultúrlann, Lá, Raidió Fáilte, An Meánscoil (now Coláiste Feirste), an Cheathrú Ghaeltachta and many other wonderful cultural and communal creations, including a thriving Irish medium education sector.Protest and book launchMoore St THE threat by English developer Hammerson to demolish much of the 1916 Moore Street Battlefield site in Dublin was given the green light by An Bord Pleanála several weeks ago. The Moore Street Preservation Trust, which is led by the relatives of the signatories to the 1916 Proclamation, is currently discussing the legal options available to it to challenge this decision.Roy remained unbowed and unbrokenRoy WalshROY Walsh was born on November 1, 1948.

It's claimed Uisce Eireann's best option to fast-track a new Wastewater Treatment Plant for Kilkee is to draw up a new plan and not appeal the council's latest decision to An Bord Pleanála. The local authority has refused the utility's application for a plant just 600m away from Kilkee Cliff Walk, citing concerns over its proximity to the attraction and that it wouldn't have the capacity to service visitors adding to the local population. Uisce Eireann has stated the project is necessary to prevent effluent discharge into maritime areas and estimated the construction of a new plant would take between 18-24 months. Former Kilkee Councillor Cillian Murphy has been telling Clare FM's Daragh Dolan the utility failed the town abysmally by not listening to local concerns.

Futureproof Clare has signed an open letter to coalition leaders calling for a renewed ban on Liquified Natural Gas. It follows a High Court decision to overturn the refusal of planning permission for contentious plans by Shannon LNG to construct a storage terminal, power plant and regasification unit off the coast of Ballylongford in the Shannon Estuary. Under the new planning bill passed in the Dáil last night, LNG terminals are now considered "Strategic Infrastructure Developments", meaning such applications can bypass local authorities and be made directly to An Bord Pleanála. Scariff based Futureproof Clare spokesperson Dr Sinéad Sheehan believes it's a terrible decision.

It’s expected by tonight that the Dáil will pass the Planning and Development Bill which would allow for liquefied natural gas facilities as ‘strategic infrastructure’. Separately, last week the High Court quashed An Bord Pleanála’s refusal to give Shannon LNG planning permission to build a liquefied natural gas terminal on the Tarbert Ballylongford landbank. Hollywood star Mark Ruffalo posted a video on social media criticising the bill and calling on people to support a petition to ban LNG. Eoghan Harris of Future Generations Kerry spoke to Treasa.

Fine Gael councillor Michael Foley revealed that An Bord Pleanála has granted planning permission for an open cycle gas turbine power plant fuelled by hydrotreated vegetable oil. The planning permission was submitted by SSE Generation Ireland Ltd.

Rialaigh an Ardchúirt inné go mbeidh an comhlacht Shannon LNG i dteideal iarratas a chur isteach chuig an Bhord Pleanála arís chun críochfoirt ghais a fhorbairt ar shuíomh i mBaile Átha Longfoirt i gcontae Ciarraí. Dhiúltaigh an Bord Pleanála cead pleanála a thabhairt don togra i mí Meán Fómhair anuraidh.

Yesterday, the High Court has upheld an action by Shannon LNG which the company took after the planning appeals board refused to give it planning permission for a liquefied natural gas terminal on the Tarbert Ballylongford landbank. Jerry spoke to Cllr Michael Foley and to former Kerry County Councillor Jim Finucane, who have advocated for the facility.

A former Mayor of Ennis insists the High Court's decision to allow Supermac's to press ahead with contentious plans for a motorway plaza on the outskirts of the town must be welcomed. A protracted 10-year planning process came to an end on Friday after a judicial review stalling the development was quashed. When Pat McDonagh first lodged his planning application for a motorway plaza on the outskirts of Ennis in December 2014, it's unlikely he could have predicted the swings and roundabouts to come. An Bord Pleanála would later refuse permission and after this two more applications were withdrawn in 2016 and 2018, before the board finally gave the project the green light in 2022. This decision was soon challenged in the High Court by Kilfenora Engineer Michael Duffy, who raised concerns over the impact it would have on special areas of conservation, however the case was rejected on Friday. In the intervening years, multiple objections were lodged to the development by local businesses who feared the large development would take traffic and footfall away from the town centre and reduce spending. Former Mayor of Ennis Clarecastle Fine Gael Councillor Paul Murphy insists, now a decision has been reached, local traders must aim to harness the opportunities of the plaza and market their unique offering to the new passing traffic. The motorway plaza is proposed for a 17 hectare site just off junction 12 on the M18 near Kilbreckan between Doora and Clarecastle. The facility's expected to cost up to €15m and will employ 120 staff when built and will create 100 jobs during construction. During the planning, appeals and legal process, the Managing Director of Supermac's claims to have spent over €1.5m on getting the plaza project over the line. Pat McDonagh says while he's looking forward to the new venture, he believes Ireland's planning system needs serious reform.

Moore St. Demolition Gets Green LightThe battle to save the iconic 1916 Moore Street Battlefield site has been ongoing for over 20 years. During that time there have been a series of plans by developers, appeals against those plans, court cases, protests and sit-ins. Last week, in an appalling decision An Bord Pleanála (ABP) – the Planning Authority in the Irish State – ruled on the remaining appeals and published its recommendations on the future development of the site.Máire FergusonEvery week seems to bring the death of the last of that generation who kept freedoms flame lit in the twilight decades of the republican struggle from the 1950s on. Emmett O Connell from the South Bronx was one of these. Tá sé ar slí an fhirrne anios. So was Máire Ferguson.

The Clare branch of the Green Party has confirmed it will be seeking a judicial review following An Bord Pleanála's decision to grant a €1.2bn data centre in Ennis. The board this week upheld Clare County Council's ruling to grant permission for a 200 Mega-Watt facility on a 145 acre site on the Tulla Road in Ennis. According to Art Data Centres LTD, the project will create up to 475 high-quality jobs when operational as well as 1,200 during the six-year construction phase and the heat generated by the centre could support up to 1,100 local homes. Clare Green Party Senator Roisín Garvey has been telling Clare FM's Daragh Dolan she believes the project has no possibility of coming to fruition.

Contentious HSE plans to construct a €25m community hospital in Ennis have been met with a further delay. An Bord Pleanála was due to make a decision on the 100-bed nursing home on a 2.4 hectare green space at St.Flannan's College in December, but this has been stalled due to a significant backlog in cases. The Board of Management at St.Flannans along with 75 teaching and retired staff lodged objections last January, citing that the development would limit space for the school's rapidly growing population to expand. Clare member of the HSE's Regional Health Forum West, Councillor Rita McInerney says the lack of movement is extremely frustrating.

Six weeks and submissions from more than 120 parties, the oral hearings on the Dublin Metrolink project to An Bord Pleanála finally came to an end today. To discuss this Olivia Kelly is the Dublin Editor with The Irish Times & Ian Carey-Green Party Councillor.

An Bord Pleanála is facing calls to provide clarity on the decision date for upgrade works to the Newmarket-On-Fergus Wastewater Treatment Plant. Clare County Council had granted permission for Uisce Eireann to construct a new pumping station at the facility last October, but this was later appealed by Kilfenora Engineer, Michael Duffy on both planning and environmental grounds. An Bord Pleanála was due to make a decision on the matter by March 21st, but this is yet to happen. Newmarket-On-Fergus resident and Fianna Fáil local election candidate David Griffin says community development has been put on hold in the meantime.

Building will start immediately on 249 houses and apartments in Killarney, according to the managing director of KPH Construction and Development Ltd, the company behind the development. An Bord Pleanála has granted planning permission for a multi-million-euro development at Cronin’s Wood on Upper Park Road.

The construction of the Metrolink line “cannot be at the expense of Ireland's national heritage”, the Office of Public Works (OPW) has told An Bord Pleanála's hearing on the €9.5 billion rail project. We speak to Virginia Teehan, CEO of the Heritage Council.

On Monday, An Bord Pleanála met for its first hearing in 15 years into Dublin's planned underground rail line. The €9.5 billion MetroLink, as it is now known, has been put on hold numerous times since it was first announced as the Metro West plan in 2005.The proposed underground line would run from north of Swords to Dublin Airport, then on to Ballymun, Glasnevin, O'Connell Street and St Stephen's Green before terminating at Charlemont Street, with 16 stations in all.Minister for Transport Eamon Ryan has said he believes the long-awaited MetroLink will be granted planning permission before the end of this year and that construction will be completed by the early 2030s.Many Dubliners are worried about how the construction of this line, particularly close to the city centre, will disrupt their homes and livelihoods.However, as one of the only major cities in Europe without an underground transport system, Metrolink could be transformative for Dublin city and its residents in the long term, says Irish Times Dublin editor Olivia Kelly, who joins today's episode of In the News.Presented by Sorcha Pollak.

EPISODE 32 The Fifth Court - What?? You've never heard of Chief Baron Palles??

In this episode, Cork-based developer Michael O'Flynn shares his views on the new Residential Zoned Land Tax (RZLT), which will come into effect in 2024, replacing the existing vacant site levy. The new tax aims to increase housing supply by encouraging developers to build on land owned, rather than hoarding it. While O'Flynn explains that he's in favour of the concept, he doesn't agree with the way it is being implemented and applied by local authorities. O'Flynn who owns 24 properties in Cork city and county, received an exemption for 12 of those sites, but must appeal the remaining dozen with An Bord Pleanála, or be faced with an annual bill of more than €2 million.Later on, Ciaran is joined by Environment editor Kevin O'Sullivan and President of Engineers Ireland (EI) John Power to discuss their latest electrical energy review and Ireland's future energy needs.
