The numbers of farmers that received payments from my Department to Ulster Bank accounts during 2020, 2021 and 2022 to date were as follows:
Year | Number of Farmers |
---|---|
2020 | 17,803 |
2021 | 17,138 |
2022 to date | 12,718 |
Around 6,000 of the farmers who have received payments to Ulster Bank accounts during 2022 to date have not yet provided details of a new account for receipt of their payments. My Department has been engaging with affected farmers since March 2022.
