The above named was approved into GLAS 1 with a contract commencement date of 1 October  2015. The applicant has received all payments in respect of scheme years 2015 and 2016.

Administrative checks involving a number of sections within the Department take place on all GLAS claims.  As stated in the reply to the previous Parliamentary Question on this matter all cases must clear these administrative checks before payment can issue. My Department is making every effort  to complete the checks required and once this case clears validations the 2017, advance payment will be made. GLAS payments are continuing to issue on a weekly basis.
