1650. Deputy Charlie McConalogue asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the reason for the delay with an AEOS payment being issued to a person (details supplied) in County Donegal; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [28263/17]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe person named commenced their AEOS 2 contract on 1 September 2011. Payment issued in respect of the 2011-2015 Scheme years.
Under the EU Regulations governing the Scheme and other area-based payment schemes, a comprehensive administrative check, including cross-checks with the Land Parcel Identification System must take place. As 2016 is the final scheme-year of payment for the person-named, re-checks on payments made for all scheme years must be completed before final payment can be processed. This process is on-going and payments are issued on a regular basis as cases are finalised.
