Swann hosts event to tackle Single Farm Payments
Mr Swann, who is also North Antrim UUP Chairman and Party Chief Whip, said: “This public meeting for farmers is being organised because so many are having difficulties with Single Farm Payments. Over the past few weeks, my constituency office has been inundated with appeals from farmers for help.
“The problem which has arisen is that a large section of the Bann valley area was subject to an aerial inspection and from my information there is a major problem within the Department matching aerial photographs with current maps.
