The High Court has confirmed the appointment of an examiner to a Co Meath-based company which builds truck bodies and trailers.

Mr Justice John Cooke yesterday confirmed Neil Hughes, of Hughes Blake and Co, as examiner to Tony Gray Truckbuilders Ltd, Hill of Down, Enfield.

The company sought to go into examinership after an independent accountant’s report stated the firm has a reasonable prospect of survival.

The examiner will now have up to 100 days to come up with a plan to allow the company continue to trade.
