Slurry Infrastructure Grant
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what measures she is taking to support farmers with their applications to the Slurry Infrastructure Grant Scheme.
Answered by Dame Angela Eagle
The Slurry Infrastructure Grant Scheme is supported through a range of measures provided by Defra and the Rural Payments Agency. These include cross-department working with Environment Agency (EA) colleagues to address any issues and proactively working with customers to enable the grant funding agreement to be offered.
Further contact is due to commence with all customers who have outstanding applications, to provide an update on progress and discuss any concerns they may have.
