An application under the 2007 Single Payment Scheme / Disadvantaged Areas Scheme was received from the person named on 27 April 2007. Following processing of the application, issues arose regarding the area of land being claimed, the outcome of which was that the person named was deemed to have over-claimed in respect of the forage area available to him. While this over-claim did not affect his payment under the Single Payment Scheme — as he was confirmed to have more eligible land than the number of entitlements held — it has resulted in a reduced area for payment under the Disadvantaged Areas Scheme. Payment of €2,020.07 in respect of the latter scheme issued to the person named on 13 November 2007, while the full 50% advance under the Single Payment scheme will issue shortly.
