The holding of the person concerned was restricted under the TB Eradication Scheme on 26 April 2007 and was derestricted on 16 April 2009. Compensation entitlements under the on-farm market valuation scheme in respect of eligible animals removed as reactors have been paid in full. Income supplement payments are payable only in respect of whole months and are payable monthly in arrears. Compensation under the income supplement scheme has been paid up to 2 February 2009 and payments in respect of the months ending 2 March 2009 and 2 April 2009 will be processed this week.
