Written answers

The EU state aid approval for the revised Farm Waste Management Scheme introduced by my Department in March 2006 specifically requires work carried out under the Scheme to be completed by farmers by the end of 2008. The end date was a key component in the decision by the Commission to grant state aid approval and I have no plans to seek an amendment.
