1600. Deputy Michael Fitzmaurice asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if the EU auditor is auditing the commonages here; and if so, the date on which this audit will commence; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [26705/17]
View answerThe Department of Agriculture Food and the Marine is subject to ongoing audits from a number of bodies both at European and National level.
All land including commonage claimed by farmers under the Basic Payment Scheme comes within the scope of these audits. It would be inappropriate to comment further on the detail of specific audits.
