444. To ask the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine further to Parliamentary Question No. 265 of 1 December 2016, if the 1,566 yellow card cases will have their applications processed before the end of 2016; if so, if they will receive their 2016 payment before December 2016; if cases are processed after 31 December 2016, when payments will issue in 2017; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Currently 1,566 ANC cases have been identified as having an area over claim and therefore requiring the application of the new "yellow card" penalty process. This new process is in the final stages of implementation by my department and it is expected that those cases currently  outstanding will be processed for payment in the coming week provided they have satisfied all other ANC eligibility criteria, eg minimum stocking requirements.
