Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 8 July 2015
98. Deputy Michael Ring asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if he will confirm that the further documentation requested by his Department on 11 June 2015 in respect of a person (details supplied) in County Mayo has been received; when the person will receive a payment under the agri-environment options scheme year 3; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [27804/15]
View answerCorrespondence was received from the planner of the person named on 3 July 2015. This correspondence bore the date of 20 June 2015. A letter acknowledging the receipt of the correspondence was sent to the person named on 3 July. The correspondence received did not fully address the issues contained in the original letter of 11 June from the Department. An official from my Department rang the planner on 6 July and explained the issues as outlined in the letter of 11 June and the deficiencies in the correspondence received on 3 July. The planner has agreed to discuss the matter with the person named and revert to the Department.
Further payments in this case cannot be made until the outstanding issues have been resolved.
