The High Court has refused to allow publication of a report by the Labour Inspectorate into allegations of breaches of employment legalisation by the Turkish subsidiary, Gama Construction Ireland.

Mrs Justice Mary Finlay Geoghegan granted an injunction to Gama restraining publication on the grounds that the inspector went beyond his statutory powers in preparing the report.

She said that as a result the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment was not entitled to circulate or publish the report.

Mrs Justice Finlay Geoghegan said there was no breach of fair procedure in the manner in which the investigation was conducted, provided the use of the results was confined to its permitted statutory purposes under the relevant employment act.
