Is there an issue in the repayment by instalments being factored into the Department budget for this year? Is the money required for other schemes? Is it an issue or is the Minister satisfied that this is progressing in the way he expected? I presume from the Minister's reply that the sharp fall in the global price of milk had a bearing on how this was handled and that is why people were given the option of an instalment plan. Was it predicted in advance of the levy being dispensed with?
