The person named commenced REPS 4 in June 2009 and received payments for the first two years of the contract.

REPS 4 is a measure under the current 2007-13 Rural Development Programme and accordingly is subject to EU Regulation which require detailed administrative checks on all applications to be completed before any payments can issue. These checks have now been completed and a cheque for 75% of the payment due, totalling €6,777.07, issued to the person named on 30th December 2011. The 25% balancing payment for €2,259.02 issued on 6th January 2012.
