Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 13 November 2012
525. Deputy Michael McCarthy asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if there is an alternative method by which a person can transfer single payment entitlements under the 2011 scheme year (details supplied) following correspondence from his Department on the matter; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [49427/12]
Amharc ar fhreagraAn application was received on 14 May 2008 requesting the transfer of 8.73 Single Payment entitlements from a deceased person to the first person named under the 2008 scheme year. The deceased person died intestate and Letters of Administration were received naming three individuals as administrators of the estate.
The first person named has been written to on seven separate occasions requesting additional information, namely the signature of all administrators. An official from my Department has been in contact with the person named. Unfortunately, there is no alternative way of transferring the entitlements in question.
