Question 502: To ask the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine when REP scheme payment will issue to a person (details supplied) in County Kerry in view of the time delay associated with this file and the hardship that this is causing for the person involved; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The person named commenced REPS 4 in May 2009 and received payments for the first two years of his contract.
REPS 4 is a measure under the current 2007-13 Rural Developments Programme and is subject to EU Regulations which require detailed administrative checks on all applications to be completed before any payments can issue. Following a cross-compliance inspection an area discrepancy was discovered between the Single Payment Scheme application and the REPS Agri-Environmental Plan which has resulted in the necessity for further clarification. This issue is currently being investigated with the intention of an early resolution and payment in respect of 2011.
