Question:556. Deputy Matt Shanahan asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the stakeholders in the beef industry he will be engaging with, aside from the beef taskforce, to ensure the best possible supports are put in place in view of the announcement on 25 June 2020 of €50 million to be made available for beef finishing farms; the estimated level of support which will be made available to each individual applicant; the potential qualifying criteria that will be applied; when he expects to be in a position to apply to the EU for the necessary state aid approval under the Covid-19 temporary state aid framework; when he expects to be in a position to formally roll out the scheme; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
