Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 15 July 2015
135. Deputy Éamon Ó Cuív asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine further to Parliamentary Question No. 391 of 26 May 2015 when the information will be provided; the reason for the delay in providing it; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [29301/15]
View answerThe data requested by the Deputy is detailed and complex and, therefore, it will take some time to compile all of the requested data. The LPIS Review was carried out during the second half of 2013. The findings of the Review were applied to 2013 applications under the Direct Payment Schemes. My Department is currently compiling the requested data in respect of the 2013 scheme-year. It should be noted that some applicants would have had existing over-declarations in 2013 prior to the over-claims established during the LPIS Review. It is not possible to quickly segregate these over-claims. I have arranged to forward the outstanding information to the Deputy immediately that it is compiled.
The data relating to the application of the findings of the 2013 LPIS Review to earlier years has been established and is set out in the following four tabular statements. The findings of the Review were applied to those farmers where the level of over-claim was less than 3% and was not greater than 2 hectares and where it was found that the ineligible areas or features were in existence in the years 2009 to 2012. In other words, these farmers were paid on the actual eligible land that they declared following the deduction of the ineligible area.
