Éamon Ó Cuív: The problem with a commonage is that everyone claims his or her share of the total. No farmer has a right to say he or she has a claim over an identifiable part. It may be 100th of the total. Therefore, he or she is claiming to the top of the mountain. I do not want people bitten in the bum by small things, as they were with the LPIS. Does Mr. Smyth believe the Department credibly...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Rural Development Plan 2014-2020: Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (4 Nov 2014)
Éamon Ó Cuív: Has the calculation been done allowing for the net effect based on farmers' practices? As Mr. Smyth says, all sorts of photographs are taken so the Department will be keeping track of who has what on the hill. If the farmers who do not currently put stock on the mountain, who comprise approximately 50%, are all put out of the schemes, what will be net loss to the economy in the relevant...

Éamon Ó Cuív: If the implementation committee ruled in our favour then the other farmers will be hung out by us and imagine the friends we will have in the mountains then. Those guys will lose two years because we managed to trump their blocking of us. Is the Department trying to start a civil war?

Éamon Ó Cuív: I would like confirmation of one question. Perhaps we should deal with Deputy Kyne's question first.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine: Rural Development Plan 2014-2020: Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (4 Nov 2014)
Éamon Ó Cuív: Can the representatives of the Department confirm that what they are saying to us today is that each individual farmer who does not stock the commonage will not be entitled to single farm payment, areas of natural constraint payment or GLAS payment on that land? Can they confirm further that sheep would be the required animal on mountains going up to 2,000 feet, so that it will not suffice...

Éamon Ó Cuív: The people who actually do these on the ground are telling us this is not practicable. The obvious thing to do is to get involved in the lowland because this is going to be so difficult to get agreement. We are not getting the same vibes as Mr. Dillon seems to be getting. I have to support Deputy Kyne on that. May I ask a question to clarify what Deputy Kyne asked? What we were told was...
