This person named was the subject of a Satellite inspection in 2010 which resulted in a penalty of between 3 and 20 percent arising from a determined over-declaration of eligible land. As a result the person named submitted an application in 2011 which reflected the determined area in 2010. In response to Parliamentary Question 32674/11 on 3rd November, I confirmed that the person named was entitled to lodge an appeal in relation to the results of the 2010 Satellite Inspection.

An appeal dated 28 October 2011 was received. This appeal led to the need to carry out an inspection, which took place in mid December 2011. That ground review identified some areas that required amendment to my Department's Land Parcel Identification System database. The required changes are being carried out and will be completed shortly. When completed, the person named will then be promptly informed of the outcome.
