The person named commenced REPS 4 in June 2008 and received payments for the first five years of their contract.

REPS 4 is a measure under the Rural Development Programme, 2007-2013 and is subject to EU Regulations which require detailed administrative checks on all applications to be completed before payments can issue. The administrative checks are nearing completion. Arrangements are well advanced to issue payments in respect of 2013 and I expect that these payments will commence in November.
