Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Bovine TB: Payments to Veterinary Surgeons.

21.

Mr. T. Dunne

asked the Minister for Agriculture if he will take steps to have regular payments made by his Department to veterinary surgeons engaged in testing cattle under the Bovine Tuberculosis Eradication Scheme.

Mr. Smith

Payments due by my Department to members of the public, including veterinary surgeons, are, if in order, made as soon as possible after the relevant claims are received.
