I ask the Minister about the long-awaited scheme for the group known as the forgotten farmers. In our last round of questions back in February, the Minister advised that his Department was looking at establishing a system, but there is still no detail about what that scheme would look like. I have met with farmers who are part of this cohort known as the forgotten farmers. They are really at the end of their tether and are wondering if they should continue with their farms, so this is something that is urgently overdue.
