575. Deputy Joe Carey asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if he will provide an update on an appeal in respect of a person (details supplied) with respect to 2012 single payment scheme; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [8958/14]
View answerA review of the lands declared by the person named under the Single Payment Scheme in 2012 and 2013 revealed that a number of land parcels declared contained ineligible features. In order to clarify the position regarding the area of the ineligible features my Department arranged for a ground verification check to be undertaken. This verification check has been completed and the results are now being finalised. The person named will be notified of the outcome as soon as possible. In the event that the person named is dissatisfied with the outcome of this verification check, the decision can be appealed to the independent LPIS Appeals Committee.
