1132. To ask the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine when payment will issue to a person (details supplied) in County Galway under the 2017 GLAS scheme; the reason for the delay in issuing this payment in view of the fact that his Department is of the view there is no issue with the GLAS plan; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The person named was approved into GLAS 3 with a contract commencement date of October 1st 2015 and has received all payments in respect of 2015 and 2016 scheme years.

Administrative checks take place on all GLAS claims. All cases must clear validation checks before payment can issue. My Department is working proactively to complete the checks in this case. Once this case clears validations the 2017 advance payment will be made. GLAS payments are being made on a weekly basis.
