I see An Taisce is advertising for expressions of interest regarding three appointments to its board. Each of the roles requires specialist expertise.

When appearing in his regular slot on Matt Cooper’s The Last Word radio show on Today FM discussing the Glanbia/An Taisce issue in May, he described himself as “an ordinary member” of An Taisce.
