Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Scrutiny of EU Legislative Proposals

Mr. Michael Moloney:

On the Pillar 1 schemes, the BISS CRISS, we started paying the balancing payments on 16 October. The balancing payments went out in December. Basically, there are issues to be resolved with any case that has not been paid by now. In that respect, there is no backlog of payments in Pillar 1. We are on target. Again, regarding Deputy Kerrane's point, to make payment in certain cases, for example, for BISS, it is stated in the legislation that by 1 December, we cannot - however, by derogation, we can pay no sooner than 16 October. We will hit the button regarding this for BISS this year. The ANC is 18 September. As we sit here now, that is our planned date. There is no indication we will not have a problem with that date.
