As the Deputy may be aware, in order to highlight the importance of farm safety, the Government assigned my ministerial colleague, Martin Heydon, TD specific responsibility for Farm Safety.

My Department has a range of measures in place to incentivise and promote farm safety. The proposals for the dedicated farm safety budget of €2 million for 2022 are in the process of being finalised and will be announced in due course.
