But when the case returned to court three days later, Madden was freed after he told the judge he would make sure the disregard for health and safety displayed by the company would never happen again.
Although Madden was released, Kilkishen Homes, which is registered in Henry Street, Limerick, was fined £6600 for failing to comply with safety regulations. The sum has to be paid within 28 days.
The site had twice been closed by the Health and Safety Authority for offences including failure to provide scaffolding on the outside of a building when men were working on the roof, and bunting being too close to overhead power lines.
