Simon Coveney (Cork South Central, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

As soon as we get the letter of comfort, which we expect in the next two weeks, we will open these schemes in sequence. It is likely the schemes will open one after the other in May and June. We cannot open them all at the same time for good practical reasons. However, there will be a roll out of schemes one after the other, and TAMS and the genomics scheme will both be prioritised. However, there will also be support for the islands, which I hope the Deputy will welcome, and increases in the organic scheme. There are many other schemes to be rolled out over the summer.
