To ask the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine further to Parliamentary Question No. 675 of 11 April 2017, if the moneys under assigned revenue for conformity clearance and European Agriculture Guarantee Fund irregularities were returned to the Exchequer or the EU budget; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Amounts reported as Assigned Revenue arise from a number of different sources. Recoveries from Irregularities and Superlevy (until 2016) come directly from beneficiaries and are transferred to the EU. Conformity Clearance amounts are charged to the Exchequer and paid over to the EU via the prescribed budget lines.
