An application under Tranche 1 of GLAS was received in my Department on the 16 May 2015 and the person named was approved into the GLAS 1 with effect from 1 October 2015.

Under the EU Regulations governing the Scheme and other area-based payment schemes, a comprehensive administrative check, including cross-checks with the Land Parcel Identification System, must be completed before any payment can issue.

The application of the person named has successfully completed the latest GLAS pre-payment validation checks in respect of the 2015 scheme year. Subject to the application passing the remaining checks currently being carried out the 2015 part-year payment for the person named will be sent for payment shortly.
