FARMING POLL 2015 - DATA: Justice Minister may put prenups on legal footing

It comes after Justice Minister Frances Fitzgerald met with farming groups who had voiced concerns over the transfer of land to younger generations amid worries that farms could be split up and sold off in the event of a son or daughter’s divorce.
Three-quarters of farmers are in favour of prenuptial agreements being recognised in law, according to an Irish Examiner/ICMSA opinion poll.
