Following an on farm inspection in September 2006, the person named was notified that as a result of the findings of the inspection there would be a penalty imposed. He appealed the decision locally, but had not been notified of the outcome at the time of his death or of his right of further appeal to the independent Agriculture Appeals Office. In these circumstances my Department will release the payment without deduction of penalty.
