Payment due under STAP issued to the person named on the 19 April 2016.
The person named has been approved under Tranche 1 of GLAS with a contract start date of 1 October 2015. GLAS applicants with a start date of 1 October 2015 are entitled to a 2015 part-year payment in respect of 2015 eligible actions, covering the three month period 1 October 2015 - 31 December 2015.
My Department received a request to withdraw a parcel approved for the Low Input Permanent Pasture action from the approved GLAS application and this has delayed the processing of the payment. In light of the changed situation the application must be re-assessed and payment will issue when this re-assessment is complete.
