Vol. 518 No. 6

Written Answers. - Grant Payments.

Michael Ring

Ceist:

196 Mr. Ring asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Rural Development when 1999 cattle headage and premia for a person (details supplied) in County Mayo will issue in view of the fact that this is the third year in a row payment on this scheme has been delayed; if a problem exists; the reason the Department have not yet sent out a map to correct the problem; if payment can be made immediately with the difficulties sorted out afterwards. [12400/00]

There were a number of difficulties that delayed the processing of the 1999 area aid application for the person named. In particular there was a problem with a dual claim and correspondence and maps issued to the herdowner concerned.

All problems have now been resolved, and the Department's electronic database is being updated. Any payments due will issue within the next ten days.
