An application under the single payment scheme was received from the person named on 11 May 2005. Following initial processing, it was found that the person named had over-claimed on one of the land parcels concerned, as a result of which the payment which is due to issue shortly, is being reduced in accordance with the governing EU rules. However, it is open to the person named to appeal the application of this penalty and, in this regard, officials of my Department will again be in direct contact with him.
