The person named submitted applications for consideration in respect of the inheritance and new entrant measures of the single payment scheme. Following processing of the applications, his application to have his entitlements established as a new entrant during the 2000 to 2002 reference period could not be accepted as he commenced farming in 2004. However, the application to transfer entitlements by way of inheritance was successful and the entitlements were transferred to the person named.

Payment in respect of the scheme issued to the applicant on 1 December 2005 and a supplementary payment reflecting the decoupled 2005 dairy premium will issue to him shortly.
