Amharc ar fhreagraThe applicants in question applied under TAMS II for a slurry tanker, trailing shoe and dribble bar but only submitted a claim for and were paid for the slurry tanker and dribble bar.
The applicants indicate that they now wish to purchase an umbilical slurry spreading system but have yet to make an application. Grant aid is only available for the purchase of an umbilical slurry spreading system if it includes one of the spreaders listed in the Terms and Conditions of the TAMS II Low Emission Slurry Spreading (LESS) Equipment Scheme. The Terms and Conditions specify that an application is ineligible if one of the spreaders listed is not purchased.
