An aid package to support farmers whose land was impacted by the Shass Mountain landslide in Co Leitrim over two years ago has been announced by Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine Charlie McConalogue.
The package will provide financial support to those landowners whose agricultural lands were inundated with peat silt and sludge as a consequence of the overspill caused by the landslide in the Drumkeeran area on June 28, 2020.
