41 Mr. G. Reynolds asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food when a restocking grant will be paid to a person (details supplied) in County Leitrim.
Reactor and depopulation grants have been paid to the person named.
42 Mr. Ellis asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food if he will now pay farm modernisation grants due to a person (details supplied) in County Leitrim.
The grant will be paid shortly.
43 Mr. McCormack asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food if a decision has been made regarding payment to farmers whose headage grant applications were lodged after the closing date.
As I already announced some days ago I have decided to extend the closing date for receipt of applications under this year's cattle headage and cattle premium schemes to 3 August 1990. This extension will benefit approximately 500 farmers who would otherwise have been deemed ineligible to participate in the schemes this year.
