Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 18 December 2013
196. Deputy Michael Ring asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine when a rural environment protection scheme overclaim will be re-checked in respect of a person (details supplied) in County Mayo. [54595/13]
View answerThe person named commenced REPS 4 in November 2008 and received payments for the first five years of their contract.
REPS 4 is a measure under the current 2007-13 Rural Development Programme and is subject to EU Regulations which require detailed administrative checks on all applications to be completed before any payments can issue. Following the Land Parcel Identification Review (LPIS) an area discrepancy was identified which has resulted in the necessity for further clarification. This issue is currently being investigated with the intention of an early resolution and payment in respect of 2013.
