Paul Bradford
Ceist:188 Mr. Bradford asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food if his attention has been drawn to the fact that there are young farmers who were eligible to qualify for the farm installation grant under the terms of the previous scheme and whose applications were before Teagasc or his Department at the time the scheme was suspended but will not be eligible under the terms of the new scheme; if he will ensure that this small number of applicants will be considered under the terms of the old scheme; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
