Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 3 October 2018
229. Deputy Éamon Ó Cuív asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the number of commonages that have not been allocated to planners under the GLAS scheme; the number of farmers affected; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [40182/18]
View answerAll GLAS commonages have been allocated to a GLAS Commonage Adviser.
Commonage Management Plans are a core requirement for participants with a commonage action, within the GLAS scheme. I would encourage any GLAS applicant with outstanding obligations, including the finalisation of a Commonage Management Plan, to speak to their Commonage Adviser and ensure that this work is completed as a priority. Without the submission of all the required information, these applicants will remain ineligible for further GLAS payments.
