Question:

173 Mr. Kirk asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry if the 25 per cent additional grant aid which is available to qualified young farmers under the farm improvement programme is also available under the control of farmyard pollution scheme; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [14911/95]

At their recent meeting, the monitoring committee of the Operational Programme for Agriculture, Rural Development and Forestry agreed to my proposal to extend the additional aid for young farmers to the scheme for the control of farm pollution. The proposal has now been put to the European Commission for approval.
