IFA pay row raises issues of disclosure

In her column last Monday, Terry Prone very reasonably asked if the average income of a farmer is €28,000, what is the fair multiplier for the CEO of the Irish Farmers’ Association.

Just like the rest of us, Terry wasn’t able to answer that question.

The article pointed out the merits of the now former CEO in terms of the benefits he is credited for bringing to the IFA, particularly since his appointment as CEO.
