asked the Minister for Agriculture if he is aware that a person (details supplied) in County Donegal undertook work under the western drainage scheme on the understanding that he would receive a grant from his Department; that a person of the same name has been passed for a grant; and that the original applicant has now been told he is ineligible even though an inspector from the land drainage section drew up his work schedule; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The work in this case will be inspected shortly and if satisfactorily completed the grant will be paid without delay.
