427. Deputy Seán Conlan asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the reason a person (details supplied) in County Monaghan has not yet received their single payment scheme payment; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [44187/13]
View answerThe person named submitted a Single Farm Payment/Disadvantaged Areas Scheme application on 21 February 2013. EU Regulations governing the administration of these schemes require that full and comprehensive administrative checks, including in some cases on-farm inspections, be completed before any payments issue. The application of the person named was selected for a ground eligibility inspection. The inspection has been completed and the results processed. Payments under the Single Payment and Disadvantaged Areas’ Schemes issued on 16 October 2013, directly to the nominated bank account of the person named.
