Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 12 November 2014
66. Deputy Michael Ring asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine when a person (details supplied) in County Mayo will receive payment of their 2014 disadvantaged areas scheme and single payment scheme payments; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [43341/14]
View answerThe person named submitted a 2014 Single Farm Payment/Disadvantaged Areas scheme application on 13 May 2014. EU Regulations governing the administration of these schemes require that full and comprehensive administrative checks, including in some cases on-farm inspection inspections, be completed before any payments issue. The application of the person named was selected for a ground eligibility inspection and a cross compliance inspection.
These inspections have been completed and the results are now being finalised with the intention of issuing any payment due as soon as possible. In the event that any queries arise officials in my Department will be in contact with the person named.
