The person named commenced REPS 4 in February 2008 and has received all their payments under this Scheme in which the final Year 6 payments issued in December 2013.

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.

The person named was deemed to have over-claimed on Natura lands for the years 2008, 2009 & 2010. The area concerned was 3.11 hectares for each of the three years and a total sum of €1,095 was recouped in November 2013.

The person named has submitted an appeal in respect of application of this claw back. This appeal is currently under review and a decision will issue shortly.
