He says Glenman spent some €6.1 million on the project though it only received €2.75 million from the council.
Ultimately, in June 2022, the council terminated that contract and this had a devastating impact on Glenman’s business, Mr Conneally says. The council advertised a competition for bidders to finish the project last September. In December Glenman was told it was being excluded from the competition.Mr Conneally says the effect of this decision was to force Glenman to waive its entitlement to maintain the confidentiality of the conciliation process under the previous contract or to force his company to waive its entitlement to challenge the decision.
Mr Conneally says the delay was due to the council’s refusal either to furnish it with a decision letter that did not refer to the confidential conciliation process or to consent to make reference to it in these proceedings. This left Glenman in a position where it was impossible to mount an effective challenge to the substance of the decision in time, he says.
The case was admitted to the fast-track Commercial Court by Mr Justice McDonald, who adjourned it to next month.
