Question 401: To ask the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the reason a grant in respect of a farm building was not granted in respect of a person (details supplied) in County Kerry; if the case will be reviewed and if payment in respect of the cost of the farm building will issue; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The person concerned was an applicant under the Farm Waste Management Scheme and received grant aid in respect of certain investments under the Scheme during the period 2009-2011. However, grant-aid was refused in relation to the completion of a slatted cubicle house as this investment had not been the subject of a grant-aid application when the Scheme closed. The person named appealed this decision in August 2008 however the original decision of the Department was upheld.

As the grant-aid must be limited to items listed in my Department's letter of approval, I regret that no further grant-aid is payable in this case.
