Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 15 January 2014
621. Deputy Paul J. Connaughton asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the reason single farm payment has not issued in respect of a person (details supplied) in County Galway; if his attention has been drawn to the importance of low sums of payment to low income families; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [55260/13]
View answerAn application under the 2013 Single Payment Scheme was received from the person named on 15 May 2013. The person named had established 29.7 standard entitlements at a unit value of €1.97. As the amount due is less than €100, under the provisions of Article 28 (1) of Council Regulation (EC) No 73/2009, no payment is due. This is outlined on Page 7 of the Terms and Conditions of the 2013 Single Payment Scheme which issues to all applicants.
