419. Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the status of an application by a person (details supplied) in County Kerry under the young farmers scheme; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [1480/16]
View answerMy Department received a 2015 Private Contract Clause application from the above named herd owner as lessee under the application. There is an outstanding issue with regard to the lessor under this application. My Department is working to resolve this issue with a view to processing this application for payment as soon as possible. The person named also submitted an application to my Department under the Young Farmers Scheme. Once the Private Contract Clause application has been fully processed the application to the Young Farmers Scheme will be processed with a view to payment issuing as soon as possible thereafter.
