There will be a number of elections at the Irish Cattle and Sheep Association (ICSA) AGM on Thursday night, I see.

The current chair of the suckler committee, John Halley, is being challenged by Kilkenny chair Ger O’Brien.

Similarly, the current national treasurer, Dan Lynam, will go up against Wicklow chair Tom Stephenson for the job.

The position of sheep committee chair will go to the current vice-chair Seán McNamara, who is unopposed for it.

The ICSA will also announce new vice-president positions on the night.

Jimmy Cosgrave Jr retains his position as Leinster VP, Dermot Kelleher remains in position in Munster, and Mona O’Donohoe-Concannon will take up the position of Connacht-Ulster VP.
