Vita Cortex director breaks silence on dispute

A director and former non-executive chairman of Vita Cortex broke his silence on the bitter six-week dispute last night as the sit-in workers began protesting outside his home.

The workers, who have been occupying the former foam factory in Cork for 42 days, said they are targeting Sean McHenry’s house in a bid to “embarrass” him into finding a resolution.

Mr McHenry, whose son-in-law Jack Ronan runs the company, said he “understands the predicament” the workers are in.
