Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 19 November 2014
69. Deputy Pat Breen asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine when a single farm payment will issue in respect of a person (details supplied) in County Clare; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [44421/14]
View answerAn application under the 2014 Single Farm Payment Scheme was received from the person named on 7 May 2014. During processing of this application a dual claim error arose where two of the parcels declared by the person named are also being claimed by another applicant under the Single Payment Scheme. An official from my Department will be in contact with the person named to clarify the situation. The file will then be reviewed and an early decision taken in relation to the dual claim, taking account of the evidence submitted by both parties. Any payments due will then issue subject to compliance with the Terms & Conditions of the Single Payment Scheme.
