lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, I wish to raise an issue of pressing importance to the farming community in my constituency. In the agricultural sector in Northern Ireland there is a high preponderance of conacre lettings, whereby an active farmer rents land for ten months each year from an inactive landowner. Under Regulation (EC) No 782/2003 – as it is being implemented – the landowner and the active farmer cannot share the single farm payment relating to that land. That has resulted in duplicate claims for the same land by both tenant and farmer. Now both face the penalty of total non-payment. Confusion and error, rather than fraud, is the predominant cause. The threatened withholding of the entire single farm payment is wholly disproportionate and potentially ruinous for many. I therefore call upon the Commission to sanction an approach capable of delivering a solution and securing the purpose of single farm payments, namely a fair standard of living for farmers."@en1
