Question 252: To ask the Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Food the position in relation to a person (details supplied) in County Wicklow who has not been awarded their single farm payment; if payment will be made; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [3722/09]

The closing date for the receipt of applications under the 2008 Single Payment Scheme was 15 May 2008, with a further twenty-five calendar day period up to 9 June, for the acceptance of late applications, subject to a rising scale of penalties for such applications. Applications received on or after 10 June were subject to a 100% late penalty on all Single Payments for 2008.

An application under the 2008 Single Payment Scheme was received from the person named on 10 June 2008 and was, therefore, ineligible under the Scheme. However, following a review of this case, the late penalty has been waived. Payment will issue shortly to the person named.

I propose to take Questions Nos. 253 and 254 together.

The person named did reply to queries from my Department concerning the remaining animals but the information he supplied did not resolve the problem.

An official from my Department has now been in touch with him again and he is to forward more material. As soon as this additional material is received, the case will be processed further.

My Department will forward a list of the paid animals to the Deputy.
