Standards body appoints chairman

Businessman James Kennedy has been appointed as chairman of the board at Ireland’s National Standards Authority.

Kennedy has worked in various fields, including food, multinational health care, agri-services and facilities management. He is chairman of the board and a director of business process specialist Fraysen Systems. He has served in other public and private sector roles.

Junior minister Pat Breen announced the appointment on 9 April. He said he was “delighted” that Kennedy would take over just as the authority comes to grips with regulatory change in Europe and beyond, caused by Brexit.
