HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:    Article 1 The scheme for the provision of socio-economic guidance for the agricultural population in Ireland as notified by the Irish Government on 10 June 1975 satisfies the conditions for financial contribution from the Community to common measures as referred to in Article 8 of Directive No 72/161/EEC.
