The reality is that in the coming year the following payments will be made to farmers: the single payment scheme, €1,300 million; REPS, €355 million; disadvantaged areas scheme, €220 million; and suckler cow welfare scheme, €44 million. A total of €33 million is being paid out under the suckler cow welfare scheme, which will be paid later this year. That is a new payment.
