The High Court decides today on an application by Gama Construction to prevent publication of a report of an investigation by a Government inspectorate into allegations that Turkish workers were systematically underpaid.
A four-day hearing on the application ended yesterday and Mr Justice Peter Kelly said he would give judgment today.
Gama Endustri Tesisleri Imalat Montag AS and Gama Construction Ireland Ltd are seeking an interlocutory injunction to prohibit publication of the report into Gama's alleged mistreatment of its Turkish workers.
The injunction, if granted, will continue until the hearing of judicial review proceedings brought against the Minister and the head of the inspectorate, Edward Nolan.
Maurice Collins SC, for the Minister for Enterprise and Employment, said Mr Nolan did not accept the suggestion that the deduction from the workers' pay was done with their consent. There had not been "a whisper" in the companies' affidavits about accounts held in the names of workers in a Dutch bank.
