Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 16 January 2018
1154. Deputy Charlie McConalogue asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if an appeal by a person (details supplied) to the weather-related crop loss scheme will be expedited; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [55076/17]
View answerAn application under the Weather Related Crop Loss Measure was received from the person named on 23 August 2017. Following processing of the application and initial direct contact with the applicant, the application was deemed not eligible as no proof of off-farm sales was submitted.
Accordingly, a letter was issued to the applicant outlining this and an official from my Department was in further direct contact to outline the details required to progress this application. My Department will continue to process this application with a view to an early resolution.
