Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture and Food
Scrutiny of EU Legislative Proposals
2:00 am
Ms Maria Dunne:
There are a couple of things in the CMO. It is about strengthening EU level provisions on contracts, strengthening the economic producer organisations and a framework for fair trading voluntary schemes. Specifically on producer organisations, it is about trying to simplify the process for registration. There is increased financial support for producer organisations where they are implementing operational programmes under the strategic plans regulation. There is some increased co-financing. It is about making things simpler for them and there are more finances under the CAP strategic plan.
