The person named has received his full Single Payment for 2006. His payment was based on his standard entitlements. My Department has no record of having received an application to transfer entitlements either to or from the person named under the 2006 or 2007 Single Payment Scheme.

Applications for the transfer of entitlements under the 2007 Single Payment Scheme may be accepted up until the closing date of the 4th May 2007. An official from my Department made direct contact with the person named to clarify the position and it is understood that an application to transfer entitlements from the person named in respect of the 2007 Single Payment Scheme will be received shortly.
