I thank the Minister of State for giving such a detailed response to my question. I am glad to see Galway sheep will be considered eligible for support and I urge the Minister to ensure that all such applicants who apply for assistance will be furnished with moneys. It is important to ensure the continuity of the breed, which is under a significant threat of extinction. There are cultural, scientific and agricultural reasons this is necessary.
