Meeting over Meat Plant

Future of facility debated at St Johns

Tonight sees members of the agricultural community gather in the west of the Island to discuss one of the biggest issues facing the sector.

The future of the Meat Plant will be the topic for debate at a special meeting in St John's.

Four options have been tabled by a steering a group looking into the underperforming facility - and closure of the site has not been ruled out.

Former DEFA Minister Phil Gawne says it's positive industry figures are being asked for feedback - but says it might not help with finding a solution.

The meeting starts at 7pm at St John's Primary School.
