Written answers

Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine

It is expected that payments in respect of course participants will begin to issue to approved GLAS trainers before the end of this month.

The payment to facilitators will then follow starting the following month subject to them satisfactorily confirming that their course participants have been paid in full.
