Ulick Burke

Ceist:

125 Mr. U. Burke asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food further to Parliamentary Question No. 112 of 12 May 1999 the reason it was necessary for a person (details supplied) to obtain a flock number before being approved for the REP scheme in view of the fact she is not in receipt of livestock grants; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [13063/99]

I propose to take Questions Nos. 124 and 125 together.

I am satisfied that the person referred to has met the terms and conditions applicable to any participant in the REP scheme. The persons participation in the REP scheme will be subject to compliance and other checks on the same basis as all other participants and she will be expected to comply fully with the requirements of the scheme to secure the payment of REP scheme grants.

It is not my Department's policy to reveal details of the farming operations of applicants.
