Sligo County Council is to call on the Government to remove Larry Murrin as Chairperson of Bord Bia.

 

Protests are ongoing this week after it emerged that Murrin’s company, Dawn Farms, imported Brazilian beef for use in some of its products.

 

There was an overwhelming response to a motion brought forward to the latest sitting of the local authority in Sligo by Cllr Michael Clarke.

 

The motion asked the Council to stand with rural communities and consumers that deserve healthy food security.

 

Cllr Clarke says he is heartened by the support of his fellow colleagues and is hopeful that the message sent from Sligo will make a difference
