Written answers

The Fuel Income Support Scheme was introduced as a targeted income support to assist farmers and agricultural/forestry contractors facing unprecedented increases in fuel costs.

As final processing is still on-going, it is anticipated that the rate of payment per litre will be finalised in advance of the issuance of payments in the coming weeks.
