Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 20 June 2017
1597. Deputy Michael Ring asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the reason a person (details supplied) has not received a TAMS 2 payment; when payment will be received; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [26622/17]
View answerThe person named submitted a payment claim under the Young Farmers Capital Investment Scheme. There were deficiencies in the documentation and the claim submitted and a query letter issued. While documents were received in response to this letter, the certificates submitted in response were not in order. These issues have now been resolved. As the claim included yard lighting which had not been completed when the claim was submitted, the claim will be subject to a penalty. The Department is currently finalising the IT system to allow the processing of penalties. Once completed the claim will be processed for payment.
