Sinn Féin Renews Call for Resignation of Bord Bia chair in Dáil Motion - 05/02/2026

from The Agenda

Sinn Féin has renewed its call on the Government to sack the chairperson of Bord Bia as a result of his company's role in importing Brazilian beef into Ireland.In a motion in the Dáil last night, the party said that Irish farmers and their representative organisations have lost confidence in Larry Murrin.The party contends that if he continues as chairperson it will undermine public confidence in Bord Bia, and damage Ireland's reputation as a world leader producing food that adheres to the highest standards.The Government has rejected calls to remove Mr Murrin from the prestigious post.Sinn Fein TD for Louth, Ruairi Ó Murchú, joined us on The Agebnda this morning to talk to us some more about this. We also discussed the latest on the Mercosur deal and Deputy Ó Murchús questions in relation to infrastructure after the recent flooding as a result of Storm Chandra.
