Animal Identification Scheme.
3:00 am
Andrew Doyle (Wicklow, Fine Gael)
It is clear that nobody is listening to the Minister. Given that Britain has accepted a 20% error rate as the norm in the new electronic scheme and the NSIS currently in place in this country has a higher compliance rate than that, but is the single biggest factor for queries and hold-ups in single farm payments, how does the Minister think this will work with regard to single farm payment processing this time next year when all of the errors start to appear? The accepted error rate is 20% before the scheme starts. Did the other countries involved in this scheme already have a similar scheme to the NSIS in place?
