I have two specific questions for Mr. Cooney. What cost will farmers incur if there is no financial assistance to remove the tyres if farmers have changed to using round bales? The use and type of tyre must be registered. Will the scheme impose an administrative burden on farmers?
I have done my best to keep to questions. The issues I have highlighted are of real concern. All of them are based on the premise that I fear the loss of jobs in my community and a dislocation of economic activity.
