The person named commenced REPS 4 in May 2009 and received payments for the first four 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 an On Farm Inspection in September 2013 issues were discovered in relation to Measure 3 “Protect and Maintain Watercourses, Waterbodies and Wells”. This issue has now been resolved and the 2013 Year 5 payments are currently being processed for payment.
