An application under the 2008 Single Payment Scheme was received from the person named on 29 April 2008. Initial processing of the application revealed an issue concerning forestry planting. This has now been satisfactorily resolved, allowing processing of the application to be finalised. Payment will shortly issue to the person named.

The matter in question, the receipt by my Department of an application form under the 2008 Single Payment Scheme, is being investigated and an official of my Department has already been in direct contact with the person named. It should be noted, however, that the letter referred to, dated 28 July, which the person named has indicated was received in an envelope with a postmark of 23 October, was a copy of the initial letter which had issued to the person named on 28 July. Furthermore, this copy letter sent by my Department in October was accompanied by a covering letter, asking that the initial letter be responded to without further delay; the copy letter was included with the reminder letter for the ease of reference of the person named — this is standard procedure.
