Written answers

The person concerned was an applicant under the Farm Waste Management Scheme and received grant aid in respect of certain investments under the Scheme during the period 2009-2011. However, grant-aid was refused in relation to the completion of a slatted cubicle house as this investment had not been the subject of a grant-aid application when the Scheme closed. The person named appealed this decision in August 2008 however the original decision of the Department was upheld.

As the grant-aid must be limited to items listed in my Department's letter of approval, I regret that no further grant-aid is payable in this case.
