348 Mr. Connaughton asked the Minister for Agriculture and Food if her attention has been drawn to the anger and frustration felt by many pedigree sheep breeders concerning the method by which she introduced a compensation for scrapie monitored rams; if her attention has further been drawn to the fact that many breeders sold rams as a consequence of such testing procedures but were subsequently deemed eligible for compensation due to the fact that the animals were tested before 1 September 2005; if she will make retrospective compensation available to the breeders who, at great cost to themselves, were involved in scrapie monitoring over a number of years but who believed that rams disposed of at any time in 2005 would be eligible for such compensation; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
