Agriculture: Motion (Resumed)
8:00 pm
Trevor Sargent (Dublin North, Green Party)
Several speakers suggested that income cuts would be made to the suckler cow welfare scheme. As the Minister made clear last night, however, this is a misleading and disingenuous representation. The partnership agreement states in regard to the introduction of a new suckler scheme that funding of €250 million will be allocated from the rural development funding package.
