Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 12 December 2013
175. Deputy Éamon Ó Cuív asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the reason the second part of the single farm payment was not paid to a person (details supplied) in County Tipperary; if the person has been informed of the reason for this non-payment; if they have had a chance to appeal this decision; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [53556/13]
View answerThe penalty applied in this case is as a result of a multi-annual sanction applied to a 2012 ground inspection as required under the terms and conditions of the scheme. The outcome of the ground inspection was appealed by the person named to The Agriculture Appeals Office and the decision was to uphold the original inspection result. A letter detailing the multi-annual sanction will issue shortly to the person named.
