31. To ask the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine why he has not accepted the evidence that the shareholders of the Keelderry commonage lands have provided, in the form of a detailed survey and report by suitably qualified experts, with their applications under the 2015 basic payment scheme; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

While the shareholders may have submitted additional documentation including the materials referred to by the Deputy in relation to their 2015 BPS application, my Department, as the competent authority for the implementation of the relevant governing EU regulations for this scheme maintains its position in regard to the eligible areas of this particular commonage.
