The person named submitted an application on 14 December 2023 for a slurry tanker and trailing shoe under the Low Emission Slurry Spreading Scheme, which is a measure under TAMS 3.
This application has passed all the initial administrative checks and has now proceeded for further technical checks at the local regional office. I would advise that, as this is a mobile investment application, the person named may proceed with that investment at their own risk before formal approval issues.
Once formal approval has issued, the applicant will be able to upload their claim for payment on the online TAMS system. My Department is currently focusing on the issuing of approvals, so it is expected that the processing of payments will commence once the issuing of approvals in respect of applications on hand has been completed.
