Leitrim County Council has issued High Court enforcement proceedings over a proposal to house some 150 international protection applicants at a former hotel in Dromahair village.
The local authority alleges Dromaprop Limited intends to change the use of its Abbey Manor Hotel from a “specific form of tourist accommodation” to temporary use for asylum seekers and has carried out unauthorised works in preparation for this change.
