The person named declared 30.34 hectares on his 2005 Single Payment Scheme application. In processing the application, it was found that the person named was not entitled to declare 11.47 of these hectares. As this overclaim was greater than 20% of his total application, a 100% penalty was applied in accordance with EU Regulations. Accordingly no payment is due to the person named in respect of the 2005 Single Payment Scheme.

An application under the 2005 Single Payment Scheme was received from the person named on 11 May 2005. However, as the entitlements in question were established in the name of the husband of the person named, a transfer is required to be completed in order to allow payment to issue.

An official of my Department, having tried unsuccessfully to contact the person named on numerous occasions, has forwarded the appropriate transfer form to her. Immediately on receipt of the completed form, the transfer will be processed and payment will issue shortly thereafter.
