Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 22 May 2018
457. Deputy Tom Neville asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if an additional green low-carbon agri-environment scheme, GLAS, payment will issue to person (details provided) for lands that are located in a chough area; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [22268/18]
View answerThe person named was approved into GLAS 3 with a contract commencement date of 1 January 2017 and has received the 85% advance payment in respect of 2017.
As the required Nutrient Management Plan and Commonage Management Plan have not been submitted this participant is not eligible for further payments. Both the participant and their advisor have been advised of the requirement to submit both plans immediately to ensure further payments and indeed participation in the scheme.
The Chough action was not listed on this application at the time of its submission and it is not possible to add additional actions at this stage.
