The person named submitted an application under the single payment scheme and the disadvantaged areas scheme. There has not been any delay relating to digitising and he is clear for payment on 63.23 hectares of forage. The disadvantaged areas scheme payment will be based on 45 hectares, the maximum number of hectares payable under the scheme, and will be issued by my Department this week.
