Intent: To voice farmers' anger and frustration at the ever-increasing administrative burden being placed on them which has had a major impact on farm family incomes.::These frustrations have broadened into anger with European and National lawmakers over the massive increase in regulations relating to Agriculture. The EU, the Irish Government and local Government are devising policies far from the farm gate with little or no consideration of the direct impact on farmers.::The following are some of the key issues that are contributing to growing frustration and anger with the political system::1. The transformation of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) away from supporting food production towards actually reducing farm output. The Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) funding is being redirected to environmental schemes – the EU is effectively implementing new environmental regulations such as the “eco-schemes” on the cheap by redirecting existing funding instead of allocating additional funds.::2

Intent: Reduction of the proposed increase in development contributions for onshore wind farm developments.::SSE argued that adequate justification for the reasons behind the proposed increase was not presented within the consultation, and that the increase was contrary to national government policy. SSE also argued that the Council had not properly recognised energy infrastructure as a contributor to the national energy supply and a driver of economic growth, through avenues such as local direct investment, job creation, rates and renewable development community benefit.
Details: In its response to Kerry County Council’s consultation on Proposed Draft Development Contributions Scheme 2017 (DCS), SSE advocated strongly against the proposed tenfold increase in the development contribution level proposed for onshore wind.
