The High Court has overruled an An Bord Pleanala ruling on the matter.
The way has been paved for a controversial drug rehabilitation centre, linked to Scientology, to open in Ballivor Co Meath.
The High Court has quashed a decision by An Bord Pleanala that Narconon needed planning permission to change the use of the building.
Today's ruling means a drug rehab facility can be built on the site that was originally earmarked for a nursing home.
