Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 11 June 2025
258. Deputy John Paul O'Shea asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine when a 2024 ACRES scheme payment will issue to a farmer in County Kerry (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [30890/25]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe person named submitted an application under the ACRES Co-operation stream and was approved into Tranche 1 of the scheme, with a commencement date of 1st January 2023.
While payments for 2023 have been made, to date this case has not passed all the required 2024 advance payment validations due to an issue relating to the commonage claim. The case is being worked on and I expect this issue to be resolved in the coming weeks.
As cases clear validations, they are added to the next scheduled pay run. Pay runs are taking place weekly across all scheme years and tranches. I can assure you that everything is being done to pay, as soon as possible, all ACRES participants who clear pre-payment checks.
