PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
RURAL PAYMENTS (16 May 2005)

Motion Details

That this House recognises that the delays in rural payments to farmers are a direct result of the complexity of the system that the Government introduced; notes the serious cash flow problems this has caused for farmers; calls on the Government to make a specific undertaking to make interim payments based on farmers' historic entitlements; and calls for an assurance from the Government that farmers will not be penalised for the delays in registering land for the Single Payment Scheme as a result of problems within the Rural Payments Agency.
