Ned O'Keeffe

Question:

80 Mr. E. O'Keeffe asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry when a person (details supplied) in County Cork will be allocated a sheep quota; the reason for the delay in having his application approved; and the number which will be allocated to him.

Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry (Mr. J. Walsh)

The person named has been allocated a ewe premium quota of 40 premium rights from the national reserve. Delay in processing his application arose because he did not indicate any particular category under which he wished to be considered for reserve quota.
