Vol. 497 No. 5
111 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food if a person (details supplied) in County Mayo has been approved and accepted as a member of the REP scheme. [25383/98]
112 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food when a person (details supplied) in County Mayo will be paid under the REP scheme; and if his application into the REP scheme has been approved and accepted. [25384/98]
I propose to take Questions Nos. 111 and 112 together.
This person's application includes commonage land. The revised REP scheme requires that a framework plan be drawn up for each commonage under the supervision of my Department and the Department of Arts, Heritage, Gaeltacht and the Islands. It will take some time before framework plans will be available for all commonages.
