Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine

The budget allocation for TAMS II in 2017 is €50 million. Total expenditure to date on TAMS II is €23.7 million, of which just under €20 million was paid in 2017.

Payment claims continue to be processed at an average rate of €1 million per week following the busy construction period over the summer months.  

All approved participants who have completed the approved works are urged to submit their payment claims to the online system so that payment can issue without delay.
