Deputy Charlie McConalogue asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine the status of an appeal by a person (details supplied) to the agriculture appeals office; when a decision on the appeal is expected; if every effort will be made to finalise the appeal as soon as possible in view of the fact that the person has not received payment; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Amharc ar fhreagraThe Agriculture Appeals Office is independent in the performance of its functions.
The independent Agriculture Appeals Office has confirmed that a review of the Appeals Officer's decision was requested. Such requests are generally dealt with in order of receipt. A number of requests for reviews were received prior to the request concerned. It is not possible to give a precise timeframe but I am advised that every effort is being made to finalise the review of the case as soon as possible.
