298. To ask the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if he will provide an update as to when the area aid and single farm payment will be made in respect of a person (details supplied) in County Longford; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [40283/14]

The person named submitted a 2014 Single Farm Payment/Disadvantaged Areas’ scheme application on 7 May 2014. EU Regulations governing the administration of these schemes require that full and comprehensive administrative checks, including in some cases Remote Sensing (i.e. satellite) inspections, be completed before any payments issue. The application of the person named was selected for a Remote Sensing eligibility inspection. This inspection has been completed. Processing will now be finalised and I expect that payment will issue shortly to the nominated bank account of the person named.
