The person named commenced participation in REPS with effect from 1 May 2005. She received payments for the first two years. However she was then selected for inspection and land included in the application was found to be ineligible. She appealed this decision locally and then to the Agriculture Appeals Office. The Appeals Office upheld the Department's decision and the person named was notified of this by letter dated 28th November 2008.
