Vol. 502 No. 3

Written Answers. - Grant Payments.

Michael Ring

Ceist:

247 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food the reason a person (details supplied) in County Mayo has not received any payments under the fodder aid scheme. [8143/99]

The person named did not lodge an application under the 1998 ewe premium or sheep headage schemes, did not hold a suckler cow premium quota in 1998 or a milk quota at 1 April 1998 and has not submitted an application for the 1999 special fodder hardship scheme. Therefore he does not qualify for assistance under the winter fodder schemes.

Ceist:

248 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food when a person (details supplied) in County Mayo will receive a second payment due under the fodder aid scheme. [8144/99]

The person named is not the registered owner of the herd number quoted. If the Deputy can establish the correct herd number for the person named the matter will be examined.

Ceist:

249 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food when a person (details supplied) in County Mayo will receive the balance of payments in respect of suckler cow premia. [8145/99]

A problem has arisen with one of the applicants land parcels. Another herdowner is also claiming this parcel on his area aid application. Maps have issued to both herdowners with a view to clarifying the position. Any payments due to the person named will issue when all relevant issues have been clarified satisfactorily.

Ceist:

250 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food if he has satisfied himself that maps are in order for 1999 for a person (details supplied) in County Mayo. [8146/99]

The 1998 area aid application form of the person named has been fully processed and all appropriate payments made. My Department is now issuing 1999 pre-printed area aid application forms. Unless the person concerned makes further changes to his land declarations for 1999, his area aid application will not need to be changed.
