Vol. 378 No. 3

Written Answers. - Departmental Payments.

66.

asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food the total amount of any grants or other moneys due to be paid directly or indirectly by his Department in 1987 which were held over for payment; the reason for such delay; and when the arrears or backlog will be cleared.

I would refer the Deputy to my reply of 2 February to a similar question put down by Deputies Bruton and Nealon which clarifies the position on grant payments. That position pertains also for other (non-grant) moneys payable from the Vote.

With regard to unpaid grants under farm investment schemes I would refer the Deputy to my reply to him of 16 February.
