Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 13 November 2012
545. Deputy Jim Daly asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the position regarding a rep scheme application in respect of a person (details supplied) in County Cork; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [49802/12]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe person named commenced REPS 4 in February 2008 and received payments for the first 4 years of their contract.
REPS 4 is a measure under the current 2007-13 Rural Development Programme and is subject to EU Regulations which require detailed administrative checks on all applications to be completed before any payments can issue. This process is under way for 2012 REPS 4 applications and I expect that payments will commence shortly. In the event that any issues arise on the file of the person named, officials in my Department will be in direct contact with the person named.
