Question 169: To ask the Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Food the reason her Department's staff mileage expenses are being curtailed when there are a huge number of farm waste management applications awaiting inspection for payment particularly in the west and north west which will lead only to a hold up in farm grants being paid; if there will be sufficient funds available to pay all the farm grants by the end of 2008; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

I am satisfied that sufficient resources are available in my Department's estimates for 2008 to ensure that the necessary inspections can continue to take place under the Farm Waste Management Scheme and that all financial commitments under the Scheme will be met.
