There are currently no payments due to the herdowner concerned under the TB Eradication Scheme.
The holding in question was restricted for the periods 31 January 2014 to 8 September 2014 and 22 June 2012 to 2 August 2013. Compensation payable under the TB eradication scheme was paid, in full, in respect of both restriction periods. The herdowner appealed the level of payment in respect of the reactors removed in the 2012 breakdown. The original decision was subsequently upheld by the Agricultural Appeals Office. The herdowner has since appealed that decision to the Office of the Ombudsman where it is currently under consideration.
