Written Answers. - Suckler Cow Premium Quotas.

87. Mr. Deenihan asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry if a person (details supplied) in County Kerry was granted a suckling quota.

Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry (Mr. J. Walsh): The relevant EC Regulations provide for suckler cow premium quotas to be based on the number of suckler cows on which a producer [641] was paid premium under the 1992 suckler cow premium scheme. The person named was paid premium on five suckler cows under that scheme and has a quota entitlement of five premium rights.
