An inspection has been ordered into the matter by the European Court of Auditors and in the event of a negative outcome and if the auditors’ preliminary findings are confirmed, this would mean suspension of the Rural Development Programme,’ the Ministry of Agriculture and Food states the following:
There are no such conclusions reached after an audit by the European Court of Auditors and no such inspection is being conducted into the matter at the Ministry of Agriculture and Food. Therefore the claims that financing under the Rural Development Programme will be suspended are completely unfounded.
