The application of the person named for grants under the June 1992 special beef premium was rejected when subjected to a computer validation check because of invalid tag numbers. The problem with the application has now been resolved and payment should be made within a fortnight. The person named was paid his grants under the December 1992 special beef premium scheme in mid-June 1993. The relevant files were passed from the Ennis office on 1 March 1993 and 8 June 1993, respectively.
