TAMS 3 has proved very popular, with an unprecedented level of applications received (almost four times the average number received per tranche under TAMS 2).
Applications received across all of the measures in Tranche 1 are currently being processed. Once the initial processing is completed all applications will be subject to a ranking and selection process, which is a regulatory requirement for all TAMS 3 applications.
To assist with the processing of the huge number of applications, I provided that farmers who require the construction of slurry and manure storage facilities, or urgent animal welfare related investments required for the winter of 2023/2024, could apply for priority approval up to 15 September 2023. Processing of these priority applications is ongoing, and approvals have issued to a number of eligible applicants. It is expected that approvals will commence issuing to other schemes, starting with the Solar Investment Scheme, in the next few weeks.
The breakdown of applications received is as follows:
