Balancing Payments for the GLAS scheme can commence when the Member State has verified that all eligibility conditions have been met. This is a requirement in the relevant EU Payment Regulations and is a long-standing EU audit requirement. GLAS 2017 balancing payments commenced payment week ending the 18th May 2018 as per my Department's commitment at the beginning of the year.
To date, over 98% of eligible GLAS participants have received their balancing payment. A number cases remain ineligible for payment as the GLAS participant and/or their Advisor need to take action. I would encourage any GLAS applicant with outstanding obligations, such as the submission of a Nutrient Management Plan or a Commonage Management Plan to speak to their Advisor and ensure that this work is completed as a priority. Without the submission of all the required information, these applicants will continue to be ineligible for further GLAS payments.
