375.

I have included €20 million for GLAS payments in my Department’s estimates for 2015 and expect to make payments to eligible GLAS participants before the end of the year. €52 million has been allocated for expenditure under the Beef Data Genomics Programme for 2015. €34 million has been allocated for the Targeted Agricultural Modernisation Schemes for 2015. It is too early in the year to estimate the final outturn with any accuracy.
