Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 6 April 2004
195 Mr. Hayes asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food the reason cattle subsidies under the ten and 22 month schemes have ceased to be awarded to a person (details supplied) in County Tipperary; and if these subsidies will be granted to this person. [10513/04]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe person named submitted one application, in respect of five animals, under the 2003 special beef premium scheme. As the person named did not submit a 2003 area aid application, the maximum number of livestock units for which payment could be considered is 15 livestock units. In calculating stocking density, an applicant's milk quota must also be taken into account; the person named has a milk quota of 107,761 litres which equates with 27.06 livestock units, using the notional average yield of 3,982 litres per cow. Because of this, no premium payment is due to the person named in respect of the five animals in question.
