Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 3 November 2015
419. Deputy James Bannon asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine when a person (details supplied) in County Westmeath will receive outstanding agricultural payments for 2014 and 2015, given that this delay is causing serious financial hardship; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [37549/15]
View answerThe person named was admitted to REPS on 1 June 2009 and his contract was due to end on 31 December 2014. He has been fully paid for 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012. He was suspended from the scheme and did not received any payments for 2013 or 2014, as he did not submit records as required under the scheme.
He appealed this decision to the Agricultural Appeals Office which has not yet made a decision on the case.
