Under 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.
To date some 32,000 applicants have received their 2016 GLAS payment and my Department is continuing to work on processing the remaining 5,000 cases with payments issuing as applications clear all of the required regulatory checks and validations.
