Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 12 February 2019
545. Deputy Pat Breen asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine further to Parliamentary Question No. 483 of 5 February 2019, when validation checks will be cleared on an application (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [6771/19]
View answerThe person named was approved into GLAS 3 with a contract commencement date of 1 January 2017 and has received payments in respect of 2017.
During the processing of the 2018 payment an issue was identified regarding the Traditional Hay Meadow action. The land parcel was amended at the request of the GLAS participant or their advisor and this request has delayed the payment of the 2018 claim. The issue is expected to be resolved shortly and once the case clears validations the 2018 advance payment will be made. GLAS payments are issuing on a weekly basis.
