An application under the Single Payment Scheme /Disadvantaged Areas Scheme was received from the person named on the 19th April 2008.

This application was selected for a cross compliance and satellite eligibility inspection. The cross compliance inspection was carried out on 29th October 2008 and the results have been processed. However, the satellite inspection raised a number of issues relating to the parcels claimed by the person named. As a result this file has been forwarded for a ground eligibility inspection to clarify the issues.

The ground eligibility inspection will be carried out as a matter of priority and all payments due will issue shortly thereafter.
