Have the organisations heard that Europe is going to fine Ireland and Irish farmers very considerably for assigning ineligible land to the land parcel identification system, LPIS? A significant fine is on the way because the EU wants to declare the land we have under that system ineligible, which is going to have a huge impact on farmers, particularly upland farmers. I hear, from the rumour mill, that this is on the way.
