Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 13 January 2021
1116. Deputy Brendan Griffin asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if a decision has been made on an appeal by a person (details supplied) in County Kerry; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [45127/20]
View answerI wish to inform the Deputy that the Agriculture Appeals Office operates independently of my Department.
I have been advised, however, that the records of the Agriculture Appeals Office indicate that an appeal was received from the person named in July 2020.
The Appeals Office requested the file and a statement on the grounds of appeal from my Department and all relevant documentation has been forwarded to the the Appeals Office.
I am advised that the appeal has been assigned to an Appeals Officer for examination and I am assured that the appeal will be dealt with in due course.
