Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 6 November 2018
795. Deputy Charlie McConalogue asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine further to Parliamentary Question No. 174 of 20 September 2018, the reason a GLAS wild bird cover payment has yet to be issued to a person (details supplied); the reason a solution to issue these arrears has not been identified; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [45697/18]
View answerThe person named was approved into GLAS 2 and has received payments for 2016 and 2017. The 2016 claim was underpaid for the Wild Bird Cover action and is due a correcting payment. The Department has undertaken a review of 2015 and 2016 GLAS payments in recent months and has identified a small number of cases due a supplementary payment. These payments will be processed after the 2018 advance payments commence and these are expected to commence later this month.
