I understand this question relates to a delay that occurred in late 1995 regarding the issuing of new cattle identity cards for animals in the herd of the complainant's late uncle. This matter has previously been the subject of representations and was raised with the Department's customer service unit, the Ombudsman's office and the offices of the EU Commission. The cards concerned could not be released to the person named until the Department was satisfied that he was the legally established representative of his late uncle in matters relating to that herd.
