That is not correct. I will go back to calf feeders. They was refundable without any question up to August last year and now calf feeders are being refused refunds. These are the simple facts and this must be a change in interpretation. I know umpteen men who bought calf feeders. They were advertised at the ploughing match as being eligible for a VAT refund. Every farmer who bought a calf feeder prior to September 2023 got back his VAT. After September 2023, he did not. This is, therefore, a change in the interpretation of the legislation.
