Agriculture Act (Northern Ireland) 2025

Section 1 – Aid in the fruit and vegetables sector: amendment of CMO Regulation

This section amends assimilated law EU 1308/2013 (the CMO Regulation) in relation to the FVAS, so as to remove any requirement for all eligible claims to be funded and enable the Department to continue the FVAS on a discretionary basis. It empowers the Department to consider on a case-by-case basis whether to grant financial assistance to a PO in respect of a particular operational programme. The section also includes transitional provisions in relation to existing FVAS programmes.
