SIPTU Ordered To Pay Legal Costs

SIPTU has been ordered to pay the legal costs for a High Court case won by the Dublin Airport Authority and Ryanair last week.

The airline and the DAA took the union to court seeking an injunction against a planned work stoppage.

The case went against SIPTU and the strike action was cancelled.

The union has subsequently been ordered to pay DAA's and Ryanair's legal costs in bring the case.

However, the ruling has stayed, pending a full hearing, according to RTÉ.
