Written answers

The Programme for Government ‘Our Shared Future’ contains a commitment to seek to resolve, under the next CAP, the issue of support for the category of farmers known as Forgotten Farmers. The recently agreed proposals for the new CAP include provision for supports for young farmers and new entrants to farming and the Department is examining the issue of forgotten farmers with that timeline in mind.

The outline of any schemes supported under the next CAP and details of the Terms and Conditions for eligibility under such schemes, or for supports available, will be set out once the relevant EU Regulations are agreed and finalised.
