825. To ask the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine further to Parliamentary Question No. 415 of 5 March, the reason payment was not made to a person (details supplied) in County Mayo when all information was posted to his Department; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

In the intervening period since my response to the Deputy’s Question of 5 March 2013, a review of this case has been carried out. This confirms that payment cannot be made in respect of the 2011born animals, because of failure to meet the time limits for submission of data. However, the applicant was notified on 6 June 2013 that data can be accepted in respect of the animals born during 2012 and payment in respect of 11 of these will issue in the near future (including payment in respect of 1 animal of a set of twins); my Department is also in the process of contacting the applicant in regard to outstanding information in respect of 1 other animal.
Applicants have the right to appeal negative decisions to the independent Agriculture Appeals Office.
