Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 16 January 2013
851. Deputy Michelle Mulherin asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the position regarding the REP scheme 4 payment in respect of a person (details supplied) in County Mayo; when the payment will be expedited; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [58014/12]
View answerThe person named commenced REPS 4 in May 2008 and received payment for the first four years of their contract.
REPS 4 is a measure under the current 2007-13 Rural Development Programme and is subject to EU Regulations which require detailed administrative checks on all applications to be completed before any payments can issue. These checks have been completed and 2012 payments have commenced. The 75% Year 5 payment issued to the person named on 10th January 2013 for the amount of €4,070.55. The balancing 25% payment will issue shortly.
