710. Deputy Robert Troy asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if an outstanding payment will be made to a person (details supplied) without further delay; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [30343/18]
Amharc ar fhreagraMy Department provides financial support measures for farmers under the Bovine Viral Diarrhoea programme (BVD). Payment is contingent on disposal of all PI animals born in the herd within timeframes set down in the Terms and Conditions. An application for compensation under the scheme was submitted to my Department by the herdowner concerned, however as he did not satisfy all the terms and conditions, it was not possible to process the payment.
The herdowner subsequently submitted an appeal, this is being processed at present and he will be informed of the decision shortly.
