An application under 2010 Single Payment Scheme/Disadvantaged Areas Scheme was received from the person named on 5 May 2010. Advance payments under the Disadvantaged Areas Scheme issued on 21 September and under the Single Payment Scheme on 18 October 2010, both on the basis of the land cleared at that stage. Parcels listed on the application of the person named required redigitisation; while this process is now complete it was found that the reference area on a parcel had been over-claimed. This error has been raised with the person named and on receipt of a satisfactory reply the application will be further processed, with a view to issuing payments at an early date.
