Vol. 443 No. 4
152 Mr. Ellis asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry if he will allow the claim of a person (details supplied) in County Leitrim for 1993 suckler premium in view of the fact that this person's claim form has been mislaid.
No application for the June 1993 suckler cow scheme was received from the person named and accordingly the question of payment does not arise. His application form in respect of the December 1993 suckler cow scheme was not received until after the final closing date for receipt of applications, and therefore could not be accepted under EU regulations.
153 Mr. Browne (Carlow-Kilkenny) asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry when a person (details supplied) in County Leitrim will receive suckler cow grant and an extensification grant.
The person named was paid an advance of his 1993 suckler cow premium on 30 November 1993. This application is being processed further at present and any balance due will be paid shortly. When all his premia applications for 1993 have been processed any extensification premium due will be paid.
154 Dr. O'Hanlon asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry when a person (details supplied) in County Cavan will be paid suckling grant.
An application from the person named for 1993 suckler cow premium is at present being processed and any payment due will be made shortly.
155 Mrs. Moynihan-Cronin asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry when the balance of headage grant will be paid to a person (details supplied) in County Kerry.
The person named was paid the first instalment of £479.76 under the 1993 cattle headage scheme on 2 December 1993. His application is being processed further at present and the balance due will be paid shortly.
156 Mrs. Moynihan-Cronin asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry when suckler pemium will be paid to a person (details supplied) in County Kerry.
The person named applied for premium on seven cows under the 1993 suckler cow scheme. His application is being processed at present and payment will be made shortly.
157 Mrs. Moynihan-Cronin asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry when beef premium will be paid to a person (details supplied) in County Kerry.
The person named did not apply for special beef premium in January-February or June 1993. He applied on one animal under the November 1993 22 month special beef premium scheme. As the animal was born on 16 February 1992 it was ineligible on age grounds and the applicant was informed in writing of this.
158 Mrs. Moynihan-Cronin asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry when suckler premium will be paid to a person (details supplied) in County Kerry.
The person named applied for 50 cows under the 1993 suckler cow premium scheme. Although he was paid on 50 cows in 1992 his quota premium rights are 48 as he was required to surrender two rights to the national reserve. He was paid the final instalment of £1,423.62 due under this scheme on 48 cows on 24 April 1994.
159 Mrs. Moynihan-Cronin asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry when headage grant will be paid to a person (details supplied) in County Kerry.
The application of the person named for grants under 1993 cattle headage is being processed at present and any payment due will issue shortly. He applied for grants on five cows under the 1993 suckler cow scheme for small-scale milk producers on 29 June 1993. Since he was not an applicant in 1992 under the suckler cow premium scheme he did not have automatic right to quota. However, he has already been allocated a quota of three premium rights from the special reserve. His application for grants under the 1993 scheme can now be processed therefore and payment on three cows will issue shortly.
160 Mrs. Moynihan-Cronin asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry when beef premium will be paid to a person (details supplied) in County Kerry.
There is no record in my Department of an application under the 1993 special beef premium schemes from the person named.
161 Mrs. Moynihan-Cronin asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry when suckler premium will be paid to a person (details supplied) in County Kerry.
The person named applied for suckler cow premium on one cow in December 1993. However, as he was not an applicant under this scheme in 1992 he has not established automatic quota rights. He has however applied for a suckler cow quota to the national reserve. Processing of applications for reserve quota will commence shortly, and if he is successful his premium applications will be processed for payment as soon as possible.
162 Mrs. Moynihan-Cronin asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry when suckler grant will be paid to to a person (details supplied) in County Kerry.
The person named applied for premium on 24 cows under the 1993 suckler cow scheme for small-scale milk producers on 30 June 1993. Since he was not an applicant in 1992 under the suckler cow premium scheme he did not have automatic right to quota. However, he has recently been allocated a quota of 20 premium rights from the special reserve. His application for grants under the 1993 scheme can now be processed therefore and payment will issue shortly.
163 Mrs. Moynihan-Cronin asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry when suckler premium will be paid to a person (details supplied) in County Kerry.
The person named applied for premium on 29 cows under the 1993 suckler cow premium scheme on 30 June 1993. As he was not an applicant under the 1992 suckler cow scheme he does not have automatic right to quota. My Department has no record of an application from him for rights from the national reserve. His application cannot, therefore, be further considered.
