The Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine, Charlie McConalogue, has today confirmed that Tranche 2 of the Targeted Agricultural Modernisation Scheme (TAMS 3) will now close on 19 January 2024.
Announcing the extension, Minister McConalogue said:
“This extension of the deadline from today, 15 December – a date I announced earlier this week to facilitate the timely processing of applications received since the tranche opened in July, particularly for those who need to carry out urgent works in early 2024 - acknowledges concerns expressed by advisors about the time required to fully complete applications currently on hand.”
Continuing, the Minister said:
“I would draw particular attention to the requirement to have the necessary authorisations submitted to my department in a timely manner. In this regard, all authorisations should be submitted by advisors by 5 January 2024, in order to ensure that applications can, in turn, be fully submitted by the new deadline of 19 January.”
Advisors and farmers are reminded that tranche 3 of TAMS 3 will close for applications on Friday 12 April 2024, as previously advised.
