My Department provides financial support measures for farmers under the Bovine Viral Diarrhoea programme (BVD).Payment is contingent on disposal of all PI animals born in the herd within timeframes set down in the Terms and Conditions.  An application for compensation under the scheme wassubmitted to my Department by the herdowner concerned, however as he did not satisfy all the  terms and conditions,  it was not possible to process the payment. 

The herdowner subsequently submitted an appeal, this is being processed at present and he will be informed of the decision shortly.
