425. To ask the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine further to Parliamentary Question No. 532 of 13 May 2014, when the balance of payment will issue to a person (details supplied) in County Clare; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [27147/14]

The person named was approved for participation in the Agri-Environment Options Scheme with effect from 1 November 2010 and full payments have issued in respect of the 2010, 2011 and 2012 Scheme years. Under the EU Regulations governing the Scheme, a comprehensive administrative check, including cross-checks with the Land Parcel Identification System, must be completed before any payment can issue. These checks were successfully completed in respect of the 2013 Scheme year and 75% payment issued to the person named on 27 November 2013. The remaining 25% payment is currently being finalised and I expect payment to issue shortly.
