I move recommendation No. 15:


In page 38, line 5, after ?submits? to insert ?for approval,?.
This is a very brief recommendation and I hope it is not contentious. It proposes that certain documents must be submitted to Teagasc.

Teagasc should not be viewed as a postbox but should exercise some discretion and approve of the contents of a plan. It should have a role in examining how these moneys are spent. There should be some requirement for the taxpayer to know what Teagasc made of a submitted proposal?
