The person named registered seventeen animals under the 2009 Suckler Welfare Scheme. The same weaning date was recorded in respect of all these calves and, therefore, these animals were rejected for payment as this practice contravened the Terms and Conditions of the Scheme. The person named subsequently appealed this decision, which was successful following consideration by my Department. Payment will issue to the applicant in respect of the seventeen animals shortly.
