I would like to ask the Taoiseach about the GLAS payments that were mentioned by Deputy Mattie McGrath and the tillage compensation that was mentioned by Deputy Murphy O'Mahony.

The Minister, Deputy Creed, is in danger of getting a slot or a call-up by Mr. Joe Schmidt for this weekend's match because of his considerable talent at kicking to touch the issue of a tillage fund. We had a vote in the Dáil and he committed to a tillage forum to examine how a fund could be put in place. From that last week we still have not got any further progress. Further to Deputy Murphy O'Mahony's comments, will there definitely be a tillage fund and will the Taoiseach and the Minister, Deputy Creed, ensure the fund is put in place as soon as possible?
