Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 5 March 2024
520. Deputy Michael Moynihan asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the total amount of payments in euro paid out for 2023 under the complementary redistributive income support for sustainability, by county; the total number of farmers paid in each county; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [10392/24]
View answerComplementary Redistributive Income Support for Sustainability (CRISS) is designed to ensure redistribution of direct payments from larger holdings to medium and smaller sized holdings. The support is provided in the form of an annual decoupled payment per eligible hectare to farmers who are entitled to a payment under the Basic Income Support for Sustainability (BISS). CRISS payment is made on the first 30 eligible hectares claimed. In combination with BISS it is an exceptionally important support to Irish farmers. In excess of €115 million has been paid to date under the 2023 scheme.
Attached is a breakdown in tabular form of the total amount of 2023 CRISS scheme payments made to farmers on a per county basis for 2023 applications which have been paid up to and including Friday 01 March 2024.
Payments on 2023 applications continue to be made as applicants meet the eligibility requirements.
