Amharc ar fhreagraThis issue has already been drawn to the attention of my Department, specifically matters related to a grant application by the company referenced under the Sustainable Aquaculture Scheme implemented by Bord Iasciagh Mhara (BIM).
My Department is currently working with BIM staff to review the grant application to ensure that the application and the payment claim are in compliance with all the terms and conditions set out under the scheme, and the EU Regulation governing the granting of funding under the European Maritime, Fisheries and Aquaculture Fund (EMFAF) which funds this scheme.
Once this review has been completed, BIM will revert back to the applicant with a final decision.
