Written answers

An application for grant aid under the Young Farmer Capital Investment Scheme of TAMS ll was submitted by the person named on 5 June 2020.

The planning process is entirely outside of the remit of my Department and any issues must be raised directly with the relevant Local Authority. In response to concerns raised over delays being experienced in securing full planning permission, as required under the Terms and Conditions of TAMS ll, temporary measures were put in place in respect of applications submitted under Tranche 17. The next tranche of TAMS II closes on 7 August 2020.

If the person named is ineligible for grant-aid under the Young Farmer Capital Investment Scheme, it is open to them to apply for 40% grant-aid under the other TAMS ll Measures.
