I am aware of this issue and have introduced flexibilities for the applicants concerned. Due to delays being experienced in securing full planning permission or a letter of exemption from local authorities, the following temporary measure will be in place for the current Tranche of TAMSII.
Applicants/Agents who are experiencing delays may make an application under the current Tranche 17 which closes 5 June 2020 and these applications will be accepted as long as full planning permission or letter of exemption is submitted online by 10 July 2020. After this date, incomplete applications will be rejected and those applicants may apply under a future tranche.
Further details of how to upload the claim without the planning permission or the letter of exemption can be found on the Departments website as follows: www.agriculture.gov.ie/customerservice/coronaviruscovid-19/tams/.
