Agriculture Schemes
Seanad Éireann — 2025-10-15
============================================================

Victor Boyhan (IND), Agricultural Panel

That is a very comprehensive response for which I thank the Minister of State. I am glad he confirmed that the compensation had risen to €3.4 million. He mentioned the role of EY. No one does anything for nothing and everyone has to be paid. The outstanding issue is how the demolition will be dealt with appropriately, along with the repurposing of the site and compensation. I hope to come back here in a few months and put the same Commencement matter down. It is to be hoped that, at that stage, we will have a response that the business has been signed off on and completed, in line with the legislation passed by both Houses of the Oireachtas.
I thank the Minister of State for his engagement on this matter.
