The person named commenced REPS in June 2008 and received payments for the first three years of their contract. Under the EU Regulations governing the Scheme and other area-based payment schemes, a comprehensive administrative check, including cross-checks with the Land Parcel Identification System, had to be completed before any payment could issue in respect of 2011. These checks have now been completed and 75% payment totalling €2992.43 has issued to the person named on 27th January 2012. The 25% balancing payment of €997.47 will issue shortly.
