Gormley overturns zoning decision at centre of Waterford land probe

A controversial zoning decision in Co Waterford, which is the subject of a on-going garda investigation, has been overturned by Environment minister John Gormley.

His intervention has been strongly criticised by the local mayor, who has accused the minister of "sticking his nose into business" he doesn't understand.

Mr Gormley found that the scale of the building projects included in the Dungarvan Development Plan did not comply with national regulations and should be significantly scaled back.
