Everywhere I go I meet farmers who complain that their single farm payment was cut last year because of the inspections and changes to the maps. There seem to be significant difficulties in the west of the Minister's county. I ask the Minister to provide me with factual information as to the effect of all these penalties on farmers across the country last year and, in particular, information on the number of farmers who lost their total payment, which is equivalent to a PAYE person losing his or her income.
