Amharc ar fhreagraThe person in question commenced REPS 4 in February 2009 and received payments for the first year of their contract. In addition, 75% of their year 2 payment issued on 26 May 2011 for the amount of €8676.99. The balancing 25% payment issued dated 11 November 2011 for the amount of €922.75. This payment included a penalty deduction of €1,969.56 for non-compliance with the scheme conditions in relation to works planned (organic storage facilities) but not carried out and in relation to evidence of damage to field boundaries and removal of habitats. The administration checks in respect of 2011 payments are currently being carried out. I expect that payments in respect of 2011 will commence later this month.
