The person named was approved into GLAS 1 with a contract commencement date of 1 October 2015 and has received the payment in respect of the 2015 scheme year.

The Department is aware of an issue with this case that has delayed payments. This case is being processed at the moment and payment will issue when all relevant checks are complete. GLAS payments are continuing to issue on a weekly basis.

The above named was approved into GLAS 3 with a contract commencement date of January 1st 2017.

All GLAS claims must clear validation checks before payment can be made. My Department is working proactively to complete the checks required to allow for the issue of payments. Once this case clears the validations the 2017 advance payment will be processed. GLAS payments are issuing on a weekly basis.
