Éamon Ó Cuív (FF), Galway West

Can the Minister also let me know whether it would be hoped, for year two of ACRES, for the first payment to take place before Christmas this year? Farmers would effectively get two payments. That causes a little wobble for some people with how they do their accounts, if they do it on a cash receipts basis. On the other hand, the quicker they get the payments, the better. Will they be paid the first ACRES payment before the end of this year as had been planned for last year?
