Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 28 November 2012
210. Deputy Joe Carey asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the position regarding a forestry application in respect of a person (details supplied); when the person may expect payment of amounts outstanding; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [53379/12]
View answerThis applicant is required to submit a Tax Clearance Certificate that will be valid at the date of payment of the second instalment of the forestry grant. Such a certificate was requested from the applicant in a letter dated 15th October 2012. No reply has been received to date. A reminder was sent to the applicant on the 26th November 2012. As this grant has been mandated to the applicant’s forester, a valid Tax Clearance Certificate is also required from the forester. As the forester’s certificate has recently expired, a request for a new current one was sent on the 26th November 2012. No further payments can issue under this forestry contract until both Tax Clearance Certificates are received.
