Amharc ar fhreagraAt this stage over 97% of eligible GLAS participants are fully up to date with their payments and my Department is working through the remaining participants with new payments issuing each week.
Administrative checks involving a number of sections within the Department take place on all GLAS claims. All cases must clear validation checks before payment can issue. Department officials are working proactively to complete the checks to allow for the issue of payments. Once this case clears validations the 2017 advance payment will be made. GLAS payments are being made on a weekly basis.
