The HWCP director confirmed today an interim injunction was granted by the judge and a court hearing was schedule for January 21. Mr Thompson yesterday confirmed the legal action but would not comment further because the matter was before the court. Invercargill City Council chief executive Clare Hadley said she was aware of the legal action but said the council decided, on specialist advice, not to publicly notify the amendments.
