Bar owner ‘thrilled’ with closures case outcome but fears payout could take years

Publican Jim Gordon is “thrilled, absolutely thrilled” with Friday’s High Court ruling against insurer FBD over coronavirus closures.

His bar, Oskars, on the outskirts of Waterford city, is one of about 1,000 establishments affected by the judgment. However, FBD replied that he was not covered. “I was advised by the Vintners’ Federation of Ireland to write a letter to my broker and my insurance company, stating that I want to make a claim against this policy for loss of earnings, because I’ve been closed by the Government due to a disease in my area.”
