Amharc ar fhreagraThe person named was approved into GLAS 2 with a contract commencement date of 1 January 2016 and has received full payments in respect of the 2016 scheme year.
The Department is aware of an issue with this case that resulted in the 2017 advance payment not being made. A solution has been identified and is scheduled for implementation this week. It is expected that the payment will issue shortly. GLAS 2017 advance payments began in November 2017 and are continuing to issue on a weekly basis.
