Summary

In a High Court case, Luxor Investments Ltd, owner of land at Ship Street Great and Chancery Lane where a Radisson Hotel stands, has sued Wave Point Limited, which plans a 136‑bedroom hotel on an adjoining site. Luxor alleges that Wave Point has breached conditions of its planning permission from An Bord Pleanala and Dublin City Council, specifically that it has not submitted a construction management plan for the proposed hotel. Luxor seeks an injunction requiring Wave Point to prepare such a plan. In a sworn statement, Luxor's director Padraig Rhatigan expressed concerns about earlier demolition work, removal of a wall, installation of barriers without consultation, and the lack of a management plan. Wave Point, represented by Martin Hayden SC and Ross Aylward Bl, denies any breach and argues that preliminary works did not require a plan, though it will submit one for the hotel itself. The case is before Ms Justice Tara Burns.
