Ray ManaghA mother and her two children have been living in a Dublin City Council flat that is unfit for human habitation, a judge has ruled. Ms Moran told her barrister Peter Maguire, who appeared with Thomas Loomes Solicitors, that the Oliver Bond House complex in Dublin 8 where she lives was also rat infested. He told the court the black mould and damp was being caused by the lack of ventilation throughout the flat. Ms Moran several times a year had to wash down the black mould and repaint the areas, but the mould kept coming back. She adjourned the assessment of damages until mid-November when the court should be brought up to date on a renovation schedule.
