864 Deputy Fergus O’Dowd asked the Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Food if permission will be granted in respect of a project (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [15510/10]
Amharc ar fhreagraAs the On-Farm Investment Scheme to which the Deputy refers has not yet been introduced, no application for grant-aid has been received from the person concerned. I will, of course, ensure that the person concerned receives an application form when the Scheme is introduced.
Under the terms of all such On-Farm Investment Schemes, it is a strict condition that no work can commence until written approval has been conveyed to the applicant by my Department.
