INTERIM EXAMINER APPOINTED TO BARNA WASTE

An interim examiner has been appointed to Barna Waste

Bank of Scotland Lloyds had been trying to sell the company over the last few weeks

However the Directors - Bruscar Bhearna Teoranta, trading as Barna Waste and Joe McLoughlin Waste Disposal Ltd - today applied to the High Court for examinership

They believe this to be in the best interest of all stakeholders – local suppliers, the 270 staff and the creditors, including Bank of Scotland Lloyds.

Following the appointment of the interim examiner, Neil Hughes of Hughes Blake, the company will have the protection of the courts for up to 100 days
