The individual referred to in the Deputy's question appealed to the Peatlands Council against a decision of my Department that he does not fulfil the qualifying criteria to be eligible for compensation under the cessation of turf cutting compensation scheme.

The Council has forwarded its recommendation to me in this case. As soon as I have made my decision as regards this recommendation, the appellant will be advised of it.
