Amharc ar fhreagraThe person named was approved into GLAS 2 with a contract commencement date of 1 January 2016. Payments in respect of the 2016 scheme year have been made.
Validation checks must be passed on all actions on GLAS claims and all cases must clear these checks before payment can issue. Department officials are working proactively to complete these checks on all claims to allow for the issue of payments. Once this case clears validations the 2017 advance payment will be made. GLAS payments are continuing to issue on a weekly basis.
