Question:

128 Mr. Hilliard asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry the number of suckler cow payments made in each county in 1995; and the corresponding estimated figures for 1996. [20104/96]

The number of suckler cow payments made in each county in the calendar year 1995 are shown on the following table. These figures include payments made in respect of the 1994 scheme and advance payments made in respect of the 1995 scheme. It is anticipated that the number of payments which will be made under the suckler cow premium scheme during 1996 will not differ greatly from the 1995 figure.
