‹ Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Farm Modernisation Scheme. Delayed VAT refunds to farmers
Summary
Treacy said late VAT refunds were harming farmers’ finances and sought faster payments; Hegarty undertook to convey his views to the Minister.
Is the Minister aware that farmers are not getting their VAT refunds? The long delay is having a serious effect on several farmers in terms of their financial management. Can the Minister give a commitment that he will liaise with the Revenue Commissioners and with the Minister for Finance to ensure that refunds are paid quickly instead of payment being 12 months late?
