Having regard to an opinion from the Chief State Solicitor’s Office, and having considered all of the facts, the recommendation from my Department is that on balance, a prosecution is not warranted in this instance. All superlevies, due have been paid in full and there has been no financial loss to either to the Exchequer, to farmers or to the EU.
