Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine

My Department is obliged to recoup all outstanding debts as early as possible.

In special circumstances, my Department is prepared to accommodate clients by entering into an agreed instalment repayment plan. In this regard, the person named should contact the Department's Debt Recovery Unit in Cavan on 049 4368207 or 049 4368278 in order to discuss setting up a suitable repayment plan for the debt in question.
