2018 GLAS balancing payments can only 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.

My Department is currently undertaking the required level of inspections and is working to have this completed shortly.  It is currently anticipated that GLAS balancing payments of 15% will commence in mid-May.
