As we approach the 50th anniversary of the Garvagh bombing, it is felt that this would be an appropriate time to pause, remember and pay tribute. I call upon this council to place a fitting and permanent memorial on or near the Garvagh War memorial to all who served and to those who paid the ultimate sacrifice. 24 Platoon E company (Garvagh Detachment), 5th County Londonderry Battalion, The Ulster Defence Regiment (Conspicuous Gallantry Cross) 1970 — 1992 and a plaque at bridge street Garvagh the site of the bombing.

This council recognises the significant investment in rural communities and businesses, and the wider economy derived from the Single Farm Payment under the EU Common Agricultural Policy (CAP); agrees that CAP Single Farm Payments were critical to farm profitability, particularly for small family farms; is concerned with the significant uncertainty facing our farming community with the loss of CAP Single Farm Payments as a result of Brexit and the end of the replacement Basic Payment Scheme, worth £300m a year, beyond 2025; and calls on the British Government and the Minister of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs to set out urgently what replacement funds will be put in place to support our farmers and the wider agricultural sector.
