Under the Terms and Conditions of the Suckler Welfare Scheme, applicants undertake to implement, for the full term of the Scheme, specific measures on all eligible suckler cows and the calves they are suckling, as outlined in these Terms and Conditions. Applicants are also required to record all details of each measure on the Departments Database through the Animals Event System. The person named has not submitted any information relating to the measures carried out in his suckler herd for 2008, 2009 and 2010, and is, therefore, not eligible for payment under the Suckler Welfare Scheme.
