To ask the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine further to Parliamentary Question No. 392 of 11 December 2012, when payment of single farm headage will issue to a person (details supplied) in County Clare; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [4609/13]

Further to the Deputy’s previous Question on behalf of the person named, to which I replied on 11 December 2012, the issues relating to two of the land parcels declared were resolved following direct contact with the person named, thereby allowing processing of the 2012 Single Payment application, with payment issuing on 14 December 2012. With regard to the 2012 Disadvantaged Areas Scheme application, as processing has recently been finalised, payment will shortly issue to the nominated bank account. Payment had not issued previously as the holding concerned was only recently confirmed as having satisfied the scheme minimum stocking density requirements. An exercise to take account of December 2012 data, which was recently completed, established the definitive position of the holding.
