Question:

65 Cecilia Keaveney asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Rural Development the position in relation to a headage grant application for a person (details supplied) in County Donegal and if he will make a statement on the matter. [19386/99]

Minister for Agriculture, Food and Rural Development (Mr. Walsh)

The person named included commonage in his 1999 area aid application, but did not provide proof of his entitlement to claim this commonage. The herdowner has been contacted in this regard. Until the necessary proof is provided, his claim can not be processed.
