The Lucknow Sentinel, 1988-12-14, Page 9Majority of producers to be compensated The majority of beef producers who sub- mitted claims when the Brussels stockyard defaulted irr payments will be receiving compensation. . "About 80 per cent of the claims submit- ted to the Beef Financial Protection Fund Board have been approved, and the che- ques are in the mail today," Ontario Minister of Agriculture and Food Jack Riddell announced this week. "I am pleased the board has been able to move so quickly to resolve this situation," he said. Total payment will be nearly $500,000. There were approximately 100 claims, totalling Less than $800,000. The livestock community sale in Brussels began to default on payments for cattle from Ontario and western Canada in late October. At that time, ministry in- vestigators took claims from producers who had not been paid. Each claim, including those submitted by 4-H members, was reviewed by members of the protection fund board earlier this week "on its own merits" and payment should be reaching the producers soon, financial protection unit ad- ministrator Gill Shaw said. The Beef Financial Protection Fund Board, administered by the ministry, is made up of beef industry representatives.
