The person named has 20 animals, including I twin birth, for consideration under the 2008 Suckler Welfare Scheme. Payments have issued in respect of 7 animals. My Department issued letters in November 2008 and May 2009 requesting additional information in respect of 12 of the remaining animals. The queries involve the late registration of calves, the non-return of sire details, and missing information for the calving, calf docility and calf quality surveys. An officer from the Suckler Herds Section of my Department has contacted the person named and the case will be reviewed when all the information has been examined.
