Bord Bia approve beef plant in NI to process cattle raised in the Republic

The head of Bord Bia has confirmed that the state agency recently approved a beef plant in Northern Ireland, run by Dawn Meats, to process cattle raised in the Republic.
Tara McCarthy also said that similar arrangements could follow in the UK depending on how long the beef dispute continues. Once the processors followed Bord Bia’s rules and procedures and submitted to occasional audits they could be approved.
