The person named applied for grant aid under tranche 17 for the Animal Welfare Safety and Nutrient Storage Scheme and the Dairy Equipment Scheme of TAMS II. Both applications have passed the initial administrative checks required and now the applications will be subject to the ranking and selection process which will be carried out shortly. Ranking and selection is the process of ranking each application in each tranche using certain pre-defined criteria. If the applications pass through ranking and selection they will then be subject to technical checks. If the applications are successful at that point, approval will issue in writing to the applicant concerned.

Details of the criteria for all TAMS II measures are available on the Department's website.
