Human rights group 'dismayed' at outcome of Corrib complaint [Ireland]

Justice, peace and human rights group Afri has expressed “dismay” at the outcome of a complaint submitted to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) over aspects of the Corrib gas project. A “final statement” on the complaint lodged by north Mayo community group Pobal Chill Chomáin two years ago was published on Tuesday by OECD representatives in Ireland and the Netherlands. The Irish and Dutch national contact points (NCPs)…found that the Shell-led “consortium” had “shown a willingness” since 2005 to “address health and safety concerns, of which the revised route for the onshore part of the pipeline seems the clearest proof”.
