Paul Bradford
Question:123 Mr. Bradford asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry in relation to the income supplement operated through the TB eradication scheme, his views on whether the rule which requires a herd owner to have lost at least 10 per cent of his animals before the income supplement is payable causes an unfair burden on those people who may have lost up to 9 per cent of the animals in their herd but get no supplement; his views on the possibility of introducing a graded system of payment; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
