101. To ask the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the action a person who applied for 40% grant aid for a new shed because the closing date was approaching may take, given that this person may actually qualify for 60% as a young farmer under the exceptional circumstances in the young farmer capital investment scheme; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The first tranche of the Young Farmer Capital Investment closed on the 25 September 2015. The next tranche is now open for receipt of applications. The eligibility conditions for the Young Farmer are set out in the Terms and Conditions of the Scheme. If the person in question considers that they may be eligible under the Scheme they should apply on line immediately.
