Vol. 427 No. 6
236 Mr. Deasy asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry the reason for the delay in payment of a beef premium for a person (details supplied) in County Waterford; when an inspection was carried out; and when payment will issue.
Payment of the grants under the special beef premium scheme to the person named has been delayed because of pressure of work in the local office. An inspection was carried out on this applicant's herd on 30 October 1992. The application was approved for payment by the local office early in January but was rejected by the computer at validation stage because seven of the tags listed in the application were found to be invalid. Payment will be made as soon as this problem has been resolved.
