An application under the disadvantaged areas scheme was received from the person named on 16 May 2005. Following computer validation, the application of the person named was randomly selected for, and was the subject of, a ground cross compliance inspection. During the course of the inspection it was discovered that a land parcel, which was claimed as forage only, also contained forestry. This error was deemed to be a non-intentional declaration. The areas involved have been redigitised by my Department and given two separate parcel numbers. The application of the person named has been fully processed for payment and this payment will issue as soon as possible.
