Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 8 November 2017
194. Deputy Willie Penrose asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the steps he will take to have basic payments and ANC payments due to a person (details supplied) issued; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [47329/17]
View answerThe person named submitted a 2017 Basic Payment/Areas of Natural Constraint Schemes application on 10 May 2017. EU Regulations governing the administration of these schemes require that full and comprehensive administrative checks, including in some cases remote sensing (i.e. satellite) inspections, be completed before any payments issue.
The application of the person named was selected for a Remote Sensing eligibility inspection. The final inspection outcome has now been finalised with the intention of issuing any payments due under these schemes to the nominated bank account of the person named shortly.
