A report in Tuesday's editions on the response of the Irish Farmers' Association and the Irish Creamery Milk Suppliers' Association (ICMSA) to the latest estimates on farm incomes for 1998 was accompanied by a photograph of a protest by members of the Irish Cattletraders' and Stockowners' Association (ICSA). The ICSA was wrongly described in the caption as the ICMSA. The error occurred in the editing process.

Where errors occur it is the policy of The Irish Times to correct or clarify as soon as practicable.
