Ceist:2 Mr. Connaughton asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food the total number of applicants deemed to be ineligible for the special beef premium to date; if his attention has been drawn to the fact that farmers are being disqualified for very insignificant inventory mistakes on the application; if his attention has been drawn to the fact for some elderly farmers the application form may prove difficult to complete properly; and if he proposes to re-examine the cases now refused.
