Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 26 February 2019
447. Deputy Brendan Griffin asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine when a sheep welfare payment will issue to a person (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [9050/19]
Amharc ar fhreagraAn application was received under the Sheep Welfare Scheme from the person named on 30 January 2017. Under the terms and conditions of the scheme applicants are required to carry out two actions within the set deadlines.
In the case of this application, it was found that one of the actions undertaken was not carried out within the required deadlines and thus a penalty was applied.
The applicant sought a review of this decision. However, the decision remained unchanged. A subsequent appeal to the Agriculture Appeals Office has now been lodged and the person named will be notified of the outcome once the appeal has been finalised.
