Question 238: To ask the Minister for Agriculture and Food if P1230873 is a valid herd number; if it was allocated to a person (details supplied) or any other person; and the reason the number P1230873 and the phrase containing this person's name appears on a record. [2356/05]

According to my Department's records, P1230873 is a valid herd number. It is registered in the name of the spouse of the person named. This record, which was disclosed under an FOI request, was part of a forestry grant and premium application by a person who purchased land from the person named. It would appear that the herd number and the phrase were inserted on the application by the person completing the application form. I am not aware of the reason for this.
