242. Deputy Lisa Chambers asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the reason for the delay in a payment in respect of a person (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [21354/17]
View answerThe person named approved into GLAS 1 with a contract commencement date of 1 October 2015 and has been paid in full in respect of the 2015 scheme year.
During the 2016 prepayment checking process an over declaration of wild bird cover area was identified resulting in the application of a penalty. Department officials are actively working to resolve this issue.
