Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 8 April 2014
500. Deputy Éamon Ó Cuív asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if there is any payment due under the REP scheme, the single farm payment scheme or the disadvantaged area based scheme as a result of underpayment to a person (details supplied) in County Kerry; the reason for this underpayment; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [16495/14]
View answerThe person named commenced REPS 4 in August 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. This process has now been completed for 2013 payments and the above named has been authorised for payment. The 75% and 25% payments will issue shortly. There are no issues in relation to Disadvantaged Areas Scheme Payments, or Single Farm Payment Scheme.
