The person named registered 35 animals in the 2009 Suckler Welfare Scheme. Payment has issued on 29 animals and the remaining six have errors associated with them. Correspondence has issued to the person named seeking clarification on these errors.
An application under the 2010 Single Payment Scheme/Disadvantaged Areas Scheme was received from the person named on 29 April 2010. While the advance payments under both Schemes have issued to the person, these have been based on those parcels cleared for payment at that stage. A number of parcels listed on the application required digitisation; immediately this process is complete, provided no errors are identified, the application will be further processed with a view to the payments due issuing shortly thereafter.

An application under the Single Payment Scheme/Disadvantaged Area Scheme was received from the person named on the 14 May 2010. This application was selected for and was the subject of a Ground Eligibility and Animal Identification Inspection. The inspection process is completed and the application has now been fully processed. The 75% advance payment under the Disadvantaged Areas Scheme will issue within a week followed by the 25% balancing payment. The 50% advance under the Single Payment Scheme will issue within a week with the balancing payment due in December.

An application under the 2010 Single Payment Scheme/Disadvantaged Areas Scheme was received from the person named on 12 May 2010. Single Payment Scheme advance payments of 50% commenced issuing on 18 October in respect of those lands cleared for payment at that stage while 75% of the Disadvantaged Area payment commenced on 21 September. As the area of the parcels cleared did not meet the minimum area requirement of the Disadvantaged Ares Scheme an advance payment was not possible. A number of parcels listed on the application of the person named required digitisation; while this process is now complete it was found that the reference areas on a number of parcels had been over-claimed. This query has been raised with the person named and on receipt of a satisfactory reply the application will be further processed, with a view to payment at an early date.
