343 Mr. McHugh asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food the terms and conditions in which a farmer over 35 years of age can resubmit his or her application to a scheme (details supplied) or apply to the said scheme as there are not terms and conditions set out in the scheme document or booklet. [11995/06]
Amharc ar fhreagraI presume the Deputy is referring to the installation aid scheme, which provides a grant to farmers under the age of 35 establishing themselves for the first time in farming. By virtue of the terms of the scheme, the initial application, IAS 1, must be submitted to the Department within six months of the date of establishment. The application for payment, IAS 2, must then be submitted within 30 months of the date of establishment. Penalties apply where applications are received outside the two deadlines concerned. Where errors are found in either of the application forms, applicants are given a fixed period in which to correct the errors and resubmit the forms to my Department.
344 Mr. McGinley asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food when the single payment will issue to a person (details supplied) County Donegal. [11996/06]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe person named submitted an application for consideration in respect of the inheritance measure of the single payment scheme. Following processing of his application, he was notified that the application was successful and payment will issue shortly.
