Written answers

The person named is a participant in the 1994 scheme of early retirement from farming, having entered that scheme in August 1997. It was necessary to suspend the pension in April 2004 because one of the leases had not been extended or a new lease put in place for part of the pension lands. A new lease has now been submitted to my Department and payment of the pension, including arrears, will resume at the end of July.
