Amharc ar fhreagraThe person named registered 15 animals under the 2009 Suckler Welfare Scheme. 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.

Until such time as this information is received, and all of the Terms and Conditions have been found to have been complied with, payment cannot be made.
