Injunction Renewed

IGas announces that today, HHJ Simon Barker QC, in the High Court in London, renewed its interim injunction covering its operations at Springs Road, Tinker Lane and Ellesmere Port. The interim injunction was originally granted on 3 September 2018.

The injunction, granted against three categories of 'Persons Unknown', prohibits conduct including trespass on IGas' land, unlawful interference with access to IGas' land and obstruction of the highway (including by slow-walking, lock-ons and lorry surfing).

The order states that if any of the Defendants disobeys the order that Defendant may be held to be in contempt of court which may lead to imprisonment, fines or seizure of assets.

The injunction does not prevent anyone effectively exercising their rights to freedom of assembly and freedom of expression.

Commenting Stephen Bowler, CEO, said:

"We are pleased that the High Court has renewed this injunction which gives assurance to employees, contractors, suppliers and the general public that they can go about their lawful business without intimidation and unlawful activity from activists.

We have continued to experience situations where activists are putting themselves and others at risk, which is unacceptable. We have a duty of care to take the appropriate steps to ensure the safety and wellbeing of everyone in and around our sites."
