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

The above-named was approved into GLAS 2 with a contract commencement date of 1 January 2016 and has received all payments in respect of 2016.

Administrative checks involving a number of sections within the Department take place on all GLAS claims. All cases must clear validation checks before payment can issue. Department officials are working proactively to complete the checks in this case and will be in direct contact with the participant concerned to resolve the issue arising. GLAS payments continue to issue on a weekly basis as cases are cleared for payment.
