256 Mr. Kenny asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food if a person (details supplied) in County Mayo will be paid for loss of livestock by her Department; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [2708/05]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe person named was an applicant under the Pullathomas landslide relief scheme and received €1,500 from my Department under that scheme in September 2004. Each affected farm was surveyed by officials of my Department and the cost of the work required to offset the damage caused by the landslide was assessed. As the officials found no evidence of sheep losses in his particular case, no compensation was paid to him in respect of any such losses.
