Lisbon treaty rejection a huge mistake, says ICMSA president

IRELAND’S rejection of the Lisbon treaty was a big mistake and will have to be corrected, according to the Irish Creamery Milk Suppliers Association (ICMSA).

Jackie Cahill, president, said the ICMSA supported the Lisbon treaty despite the fact that radically different views were being strongly advocated by other people in its sector at the time and subsequently.

“We saw — and we still see — our future as being best served by ratification of the treaty,” he said.
