Dairygold board face vote crisis

THE board members of Dairygold Co-op were yesterday considering their positions after shareholders voted no confidence in them at the society’s annual general meeting.

Supporters of the motion maintained the decision had made the position of the 10-member board untenable and they should accordingly resign.

Dairygold chief executive Jerry Henchy said that from a rules point of view the passing of a vote of no confidence is merely a rebuke for the board.
