After refusing the application for receivership by 7 companies in Liam Carroll’s Zoe Group on Thursday, on Friday Mr Justice Clarke postponed making the winding up orders requested by Dutch bank ACC until Monday at 2pm. Just in case they wanted yet another bite of the cherry with another appeal..

Is it all about NAMA? At IrishEconomy.ie Karl Whelan, again, questions its ‘credit flow’ supporters.
