Farmer who wanted grant for outhouse had to complete 32 forms

TO build an outhouse and get an agricultural grant for it you may need to fill out 32 application forms.

The farmer who had to build a paper mountain before he put a brick on a brick had his case highlighted in Dáil Eireann by Dinny McGinley, TD (FG), who said that in 1973 an applicant needed to fill out only one form.

He said forms are terrifying for most farmers, particularly in the west of Ireland.
