Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 15 December 2015
211. Deputy Seamus Kirk asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine when persons (details supplied) in County Cork will receive payment under the basic payment scheme; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [44753/15]
View answerTwo of the persons named farmed separately under the 2013 Scheme. In 2014, the three persons named above entered into a Milk Production Partnership agreement and submitted a 2014 Transfer of Entitlements application to have their entitlements transferred to the above herd number. They subsequently entered into a Registered Farm Partnership under the 2015 Scheme year. The allocation rights attributed to the individual parties under the 2013 Scheme are now being transferred to the Farm Partnership to allow for the number of entitlements to be established for each partner under the 2015 Basic Payment Scheme. This process will be completed shortly and payment will issue shortly thereafter.
