I understand from Údarás na Gaeltachta that it provides assistance to facilitate veterinary visits to farmers in remote areas of the Gaeltacht in County Galway and the Aran Islands. The assistance paid in respect of each recorded visit is currently €30.
Payments made for the five-year period 2000 to 2004 are as follows:
