Question:206 Miss Coughlan asked the Minister for the Marine when the next tranch of FEOGA grants will be made available to the fishing industry.[1817/95]
Written Answers. - FEOGA Grants.
Under the terms of the new operational programme for fisheries 1994-99, EU grants to the fishing industry are being funded from the Financial Instrument for Fisheries Guidance, FIFG, which has replaced FEOGA in this area. I expect to be in a position to announce details of the next tranche of FIFG grants for fleet, aquaculture and processing projects during the month of March next.
