Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 5 November 2013
971. Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the position regarding a REP scheme 4 payment in respect of a person (details supplied) in County Cork; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [47027/13]
View answerThe person named commenced REPS 4 in June 2008 and received payments for the first five years of their contract.
REPS 4 is a measure under the Rural Development Programme, 2007-2013 and is subject to EU Regulations which require detailed administrative checks on all applications to be completed before payments can issue. The administrative checks are nearing completion. Arrangements are well advanced to issue payments in respect of 2013 and I expect that these payments will commence in November.
