Vol. 480 No. 2
122 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry when a person (details supplied) in County Mayo will be paid his 1996 extensification aid in view of the fact that the delay is causing financial hardship. [13881/97]
The person named will be paid his 1996 extensification premium grant within a week.
123 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry the reason a person (details supplied) in County Mayo was not entitled to a full headage payment on his 200 sheep in view of the fact that he is only being paid on 50 sheep. [13882/97]
Under the ewe premium scheme the number of ewes on which payment can be made is limited to the number of eligible sheep found in the applicant's flock or the number of quota rights held by the applicant, whichever is the lower. Although the person in question had 197 eligible ewes under the 1996 scheme he had a quota for 50 only and consequently payment was limited to 50 ewes.
Under the 1996 sheep headage scheme the person named applied on 200 mountain breeding ewes but as these ewes were not substantially maintained on mountain grazings he was deemed ineligible for payment in accordance with the terms and conditions of the scheme.
125 Mr. Creed asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry if his Department can furnish evidence of payment of the 1992 beef premium to a person (details supplied) in County Cork who claims that his payment was never received. [13884/97]
