Image: casementpark.ie THERE HAS BEEN positive news for the redevelopment of Casement Park today, as a legal challenge against the decision to grant planning approval was rejected.

The redevelopment had been recommended by Northern Ireland’s then-Infrastructure minister Nichola Mallon in 2020, and planning permission was formally granted in July of last year. “We in Antrim want to see Casement Park built so that the children and the current generation have the opportunity to play there.”

Reacting to the judgment, Sinn Féin MP Paul Maskey said: “News that the court has ruled that the Casement Park redevelopment should go ahead is fantastic for the local area, for Antrim and Ulster GAA and for Gaels across the island.
