Outstanding payments due to the estate of a deceased herd owner cannot usually be made in the absence of grant of probate. However, in this case, as it is understood that solicitors acting on behalf of the estate of the late person named are experiencing difficulties which are delaying the grant of probate, my Department has advised that an appropriate letter of indemnity will suffice.

Accordingly, on provision of the letter of indemnity to my Department arrangements will be made for the issuing of the payments in question.
