Mr. Aidan O'Driscoll:

I will revert to the Deputy with the exact figures, if he does not mind. I know that he is well aware that this has been a very troubled issue. The new hen harrier provisions under the green low-carbon agri-environment scheme are much more generous to a much larger number of farmers than the old measures under the National Parks and Wildlife Service. I think representatives of the service would fully agree with that assessment. The new provisions will give a large number of farmers access to a sum up to €7,000.
