The person named commenced REPS 4 in December 2007 and received payments for the first five years of their contract.

REPS 4 is a measure under the current 2007-13 Rural Development Programme and is subject to EU Regulations which require detailed administrative checks on all applications to be completed before any payments can issue. These checks have now been successfully completed in this case in respect of the 2012 payment and the final year 75% payment amounting to €6582.53 has issued for payment dated 12 April 2013. The 25% balancing payment will issue shortly.
