Written answers

In order to qualify for payment under the 2015 Sheep Technology Adoption Programme participants were required to both attend four meetings and satisfactorily complete two tasks. While the person named attended the required meetings, the required tasks were not completed. The person named was notified on 13 January 2016 that as he had not satisfactorily completed the two tasks payment is not due. He was also notified of the option to appeal this decision. To date an appeal has not been received in my Department.
