Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 23 October 2014
91. Deputy Patrick O'Donovan asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the reasons a person (details supplied) in County Wexford has yet to receive their disadvantaged area payment; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [40722/14]
View answerThe person named submitted a 2014 Single Farm Payment/Disadvantaged Areas’ scheme application on 1 April 2014. EU Regulations governing the administration of these schemes require that full and comprehensive administrative checks, including in some cases Remote Sensing (i.e. satellite) inspections, be completed before any payments issue. The application of the person named was selected for a Remote Sensing eligibility inspection. This inspection has been completed. Processing of payments due will now be finalised and will issue shortly to the nominated bank account of the person named.
