211. Deputy Tom Hayes asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine when payment under the single farm payment scheme will issue to a person (details supplied) in County Tipperary; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [10830/13]
View answerAn application was received on 15th May 2012 from the person named requesting the transfer of 39.37 entitlements by way of lease to a company.
This application was fully processed. Following processing, the person named contacted the Single Payments entitlements section of my Department requesting that the transaction not go ahead as he had miscalculated the entitlements position.
An official from my Department reviewed the position and reverted the transfer. As a result the person named is now due an additional payment in respect of the 39.37 entitlements. This payment will issue shortly.
