Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 16 April 2013
1004. Deputy Dara Calleary asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the position regarding agri environment option scheme applications in respect of persons (details supplied) in County Donegal; when payments will issue in each case; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [16492/13]
View answerApplications under the Agri-Environment Options Scheme from the persons named were received in my Department on 6 December 2012 and acknowledgement letters have issued in each case. The processing of all applications is nearing completion and I expect to be in a position to inform all applicants of the outcome in the next few weeks. In the event that any queries arise on the applications of the persons named during this process officials in my Department will be in direct contact with the persons named. Payments will be dependent in the first instance on an applicant’s acceptance into the scheme and subsequently on compliance with the scheme Terms and Conditions.
