Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Priorities of Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Discussion

5:00 pm

Mr. Aidan O'Driscoll:

We have to bring it in in 2018. We have no choice. It is a pure coincidence that there is an extra €25 million. That was something the Government decided to provide. From my point of view it is a coincidence. There is no relationship between the two things. There is additional funding coming in 2018, there is the new classification in 2018, and there is the decision to be made on the use of the 10% discretion.
