Of the 1,381 applications for special beef premium received in Kildare in 1989, three have not yet been paid because the applicants concerned have not supplied legal documents requested as proof of ownership of their lands.
Of the 1,270 applications for special beef premium received in Kildare in 1990, 11 query cases were processed recently and will be paid shortly and 76 other cases are still under query — the other 1,183 cases have been paid. As soon as the applicants concerned supply satisfactory replies to the queries raised, the 79 outstanding 1989 and 1990 special beef premium cases will be processed for payment.
The 1991 payments under this scheme are not scheduled to start until November.
