Written answers

The person named commenced REPS in June 2008 and received payments for the first three years of their contract.

REPS 4 is a measure under the current 2007-13 Rural Development Programme and is subject to EU Regulation which requires detailed administrative checks on all applications to be completed before any payments can issue. During the course of the administrative check an area discrepancy was discovered between the Single Payment Scheme application for 2011 and the REPS 4 Agri-environmental Plan of the person named. This issue has now been resolved and I expect payment to issue to the person named shortly.
