It is a matter for the Department to be able to draw up a scheme. If farmers are losing and they need to be compensated, that is a matter between the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine and the farmers.
The money is in place in the scheme that is there. The GLAS scheme is there for them and I hope to see it used for the next couple of years.
