Mr. John David Taylor
asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland when he proposes to issue payment of the ewe premium in the current year.
Dr. Boyson
Payment of the ewe premium is made after the end of the relevant European Community marketing year, except for flocks in the less favoured areas where a partial advance is made. Payments for the marketing year which ended on 26 May will commence shortly after the rate has been determined by the Commission.
