‘I would like to thank the shareholders for the opportunity to contribute to the future well-being of Inframax and I wish all my fellow Directors, management and staff well for the future’. says Mr Tait.

Mayor Brian Hanna commented “I would like to pass on a huge vote of thanks to Eric who, along with fellow Board members Earl Rattray and Craig Rowlandson, has overseen the recovery of ICL from a very vulnerable state, to a much more stable company today. I wish Eric all the best for his future endeavours.”
