This applicant has been deemed ineligible for grants under the 1991 special beef premium scheme as he did not maintain the number of animals applied for on his application for two months from date of lodgment of his application or until inspection, whichever was later, as required under the terms and conditions of the scheme. He did not avail of the concession which allowed applicants who wished to sell animals after the maximum two months retention period but before inspection to bring the cattle identity cards for these animals to my Department for inspection, stamping and punching before sale. He has been paid his 1991 suckler cow premium scheme grant already.
