asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food if he will now pay a cattle headage grant to a person (details supplied) in County Leitrim; and if not, the reason.

The person named was requested when his herd was inspected under the 1986 cattle headage, calf premium and suckler cow schemes on 1 October 1986 to supply particulars of his off-farm income declared on his application form and also to forward his calf register as his calves were not tagged at the time of inspection.

No reply has been received to this or to a further request on 4 February 1987. When the information requested is received, his applications will be considered further.

asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food if he will pay a cattle headage grant due to a person (details supplied) in County Leitrim; and if not, the reason.

The person named has been paid his 1986 cattle headage scheme grant already. He was deemed ineligible for the 1986 EC calf premium and suckler cow schemes as he did not present any calves or cows at inspection.

asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food if he will pay a cattle headage grant due to a person (details supplied) in County Sligo; and, if not, the reason.

The herds of the person named and her son are treated as one under the cattle headage schemes as they are managed as one unit.

The son of the person named has already been paid the maximum cattle headage grants for 1985 and slightly less than the maximum for 1986. A balance is now due to bring payment up to the maximum for 1986 and this will be paid shortly. The person named has already been paid EC calf and suckler cow premium grants.
