The person involved submitted an application for consideration in respect of the new entrant measure of the single payment scheme. Following an examination of the papers submitted, he was notified that his application was successful and that the years 2000 and 2001 would be excluded from his single payment calculation. A statement of provisional entitlements outlining the amended position issued to him on 16 December 2004.

The person involved submitted an application to have his entitlements reviewed. Following examination of the papers submitted it has been established that payments under the extensification and slaughter premium schemes had not been credited to him. This error has been corrected and he has now been credited with these payments. Notification has issued to the herd-owner concerned.

A new provisional statement of entitlements has been requested and will issue in the coming week.
