Let us get real. Will the Department go back and look at the situation on the islands? I was talking to a farmer yesterday who was farming on an island but the island happened to be in the Shannon. He had the exact same problem so Mr. Gleeson should not think that this is just a problem in the west. In five years when the guy gets penalised, it is no good saying page 15 of the rules says that the Department cannot help him. Can the Department sort that out now?
