Ceist:110 Mr. Kavanagh asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food if his attention has been drawn to the fact that many farmers who appealed against exclusion from disadvantaged status have been told that brought-in feed costs will not be considered by the disadvantage areas appeal panel in determining their claim for inclusion; if he agrees that the exclusion of a major cost input will seriously affect the accuracy of the survey; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
