A judicial review launched against the Land Development Agency for a project at the former Central Mental Hospital is likely to add €30m to the cost of the scheme, the Oireachtas housing committee has heard.
John Coleman, the chief executive of the LDA, said there would be a significant delay to the project and described judicial reviews as a risk.
