Friday 20 July 2012 Written Answers Note 1: UK GAAP accounting standards applied for the 2007/08 and 2008/09 years therefore these figures are not comparable with 2009 onwards. The accounts from 2009/10 onwards have been accounted for under IFRS with the budgets allocated on that basis. Note 2: The 2009/10 Non-Cash Expenditure figure has been adjusted to remove the cost of capital £7,830k to improve comparability with 2010/11 and 2011/12. Note 3: The 2010/11 Resource Expenditure figure includes £395k in respect of the equal pay settlement. Bees Imported into Northern Ireland Mr Cree asked the Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development how many bees have been (i) directly; or (ii) indirectly imported in each of the last three years. (AQW 13304/11-15) Mrs O’Neill: (i) In 2011 three consignments with 30 Queen Honey Bees and their attendants were notified to DARD prior to direct importation into the north of Ireland. In 2010 eighteen consignments with 37 Queen Honey Bees and their attendants were notified to DARD prior to direct importation into the north of Ireland. In 2009 thirteen consignments with 45 Queen Honey Bees and their attendants were notified to DARD prior to direct importation into the north of Ireland. (ii) Over each of the last three years no consignments of Queen Honey Bees and attendants were notified to DARD as being indirectly imported into the north of Ireland. Convictions for Fraud Offences Mr Allister asked the Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development how many convictions for fraud offences have resulted from investigations carried out by the Central Investigation Service since it’s inception. (AQW 13343/11-15) Mrs O’Neill: In response to your question, the number of convictions for fraud offences from investigations carried out by the Central Investigation Service since its inception in 2002 is 7. In addition, the CIS had 86 cases of successful regulatory/legislative convictions. 58 of these cases relate to false claims for subsidy and compensation. 28 cases relate to non compliance with legislation/regulation. National Arboretum at Castlewellan Forest Park Mr McCarthy asked the Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development how much funding has been allocated to the feasibility study, economic appraisal and capital works required to upgrade the National Arboretum at Castlewellan Forest Park. (AQW 13346/11-15) Mrs O’Neill: There is currently no specific budget set aside for this purpose. Forest Service has recently signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Down District Council which creates a framework to increase opportunities for the recreational use and tourism potential of forests within the Down District Council area. The arboretum will be one of the areas considered jointly by both partners with the aim of securing a long term viable end use and to deliver the Executive commitment to set a good example in the care of its historic estate. Forest Service is currently in the process of obtaining estimates for essential repairs to the glasshouses and built structures within the arboretum. WA 445
