The person named applied for 11 animals in 2009 under the Suckler Welfare Scheme.

It is a condition of this Scheme that for herds of more than 10 cows the calves must be weaned in at least two separate groups with each group being removed at a minimum interval of five days. My Department examined the additional information provided by the applicant but was not satisfied that this condition was adhered to by the applicant. Therefore, no payment can issue to the applicant under the Scheme.
