Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 10 November 2015
268. Deputy Jim Daly asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine when a single farm payment will issue to a person (details supplied) in County Cork; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [39202/15]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe person named submitted a 2015 Basic Payment/Areas of Natural Constraint Scheme application on 10 April 2015. EU Regulations governing the administration of these schemes require that full and comprehensive administrative checks, including in some cases Remote Sensing (i.e. satellite) inspections, be completed before any payments issue.
The application of the person named was selected for a Remote Sensing eligibility inspection. This inspection is currently being finalised with the intention of issuing any payments due under the Direct Payments Schemes as soon as possible. In the event that any queries arise officials in my Department will be in contact with the person named.
