My Department has no record of having received an application from the person named in respect of the 2007 EU Single Payment Scheme, nor any communication from him concerning the matter. An official of my Department yesterday contacted the person named directly and requested him to outline in writing the reasons why the application in question was not submitted. Immediately on receipt of the letter sought from the person named, the matter will be fully considered and he will be advised directly of the position.
