Dunnes Stores was sued in the High Court over alleged delays to The Square shopping centre redevelopment, reported on 12 November 2015. The planned Tallaght extension had received permission, but Dunnes had challenged the planning decision and subsequently faced legal action from Nama.

The proposed €40 million expansion was intended to double the centre’s size, with new department stores and shops. The report said the planning challenge concerned issues including access, parking, traffic, consultation and the environmental impact statement.
