Request to roll over the scheme
Carol Nolan asked whether the knowledge transfer scheme will be rolled over until the common agricultural policy is agreed and urged ministers to make every effort possible to ensure the scheme is continued.
Reference to programme for government
She noted that page 111 of the programme for government recognises the great benefits, positive benefits associated with the knowledge transfer scheme.
Farmers' feedback
Nolan said she met a group of farmers last week in Bor who told her the scheme was very successful and worthwhile, reinforcing her call for its continuation.
Ministerial response
A minister replied that the Deputy is right, saying the knowledge transfer schemes have been part of the world development programme under the CAP and have been very successful. The minister said there is a likelihood that the next Вас game is going to be delayed by at least a year and that transitionary arrangements are intended to try and accommodate the knowledge transfers under that provision.
