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 the scheme years 2016 and 2017.

In relation to payment for 2018, 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 be made. In the process of checking this application an issue has been identified which requires action by the participant. As Department officials have unsuccessfully tried to contact the participant concerned to explain what is required the Advisor concerned is being contacted in this regard. GLAS payments are continuing to issue on a weekly basis.
