Andy Farrell hopes Tadhg Furlong will make swift return after hamstring strainBy Ed Elliot, PAHead coach Andy Farrell is hopeful prop Tadhg Furlong will make a swift recovery from the hamstring strain which has ruled him out of Ireland’s Autumn Nations Series opener against New Zealand. Leinster tighthead Furlong arrived in camp nursing the muscular problem and has fallen short in his fitness battle ahead of Friday’s Dublin showdown with the All Blacks. “He had a bit of a hamstring strain coming into camp, we thought it would be something that would progress,” Farrell, whose side also host Argentina, Fiji and Australia this month, said of Furlong. Ireland are set to take on the All Blacks for the first time since last year’s 28-24 World Cup quarter-final defeat in Paris.

The Residential Zoned Land Tax (RZLT) was introduced in the Finance Act 2021. The tax is an annual tax calculated at a rate of 3 per cent of the market value of land. The developer says the board, in considering whether to apply for RZLT, took into account the relevant infrastructure and servicing of the site and its suitability for residential development. The board also found residential development on the site would be contrary to the Fingal Development Plan, it says. It says the planning refusal is invalidated by the board’s failure to have regard to its earlier tax decision and by its misinterpretation of the Fingal Development Plan.
