Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 2 October 2018
468. Deputy Brendan Griffin asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if a transfer of entitlements application can be accepted on grounds of force majeure in respect of a person (details supplied) in County Kerry; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [39459/18]
View answerThe person named was party to two applications to transfer entitlements in 2015, as a transferee. My Department has issued a notification to the parties concerned outlining that the applications to transfer these entitlements were deemed unsuccessful. These notifications detailed the reasons that the transfer of entitlements applications were unsuccessful. The applicants were given the option to appeal the decision and following this 2 different options were given to the applicants to allow the processing of the transfer. They did not respond to either of these options and so my Department has no option other than to deem the transfer application unsuccessful.
