Shane Byrne’s dispute over a waste company was settled and struck out by the High Court on 14 May 2020. The case concerned AWD Waste Solutions Ltd, which Byrne operated with his brother William alongside majority shareholder Oxigen Environmental.

Mr Justice Michael Quinn was told all matters between the parties had been resolved. Counsel for Oxigen said previous court orders could be vacated. The settlement terms were not disclosed, while the brothers continued to deny Oxigen’s allegations about the company’s affairs and solvency.

The proceedings followed interim injunctions and related Companies Act applications concerning the brothers’ shareholding and the company’s operation.
