118. To ask the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if he has examined the possibility of introducing a whole farm scheme such as REPS here for the next CAP reform; and if it is possible to introduce a whole farm scheme post-2020 based on the European Commission proposals published in June 2018.

Agri-environment policy is subject to the CAP reform negotiations that are currently under way. A CAP consultation process with farming bodies and stakeholders in relation to this process commenced this week.

Any future agri-environment scheme will be dependent on the outcome of these CAP negotiations.
