An application under the Single Payment Scheme/Disadvantaged Areas Scheme was received from the person named on the 22 April 2010.
This application was selected for a Ground Eligibility inspection. During the course of the Ground Eligibility inspection a discrepancy was found with parcel P11922092 requiring amendments to the boundary. The claimed area for the Single Payment Scheme of 21.12ha was reduced to 20.04ha. When tolerance was taken into account this area was decreased to 20.02ha. As the total entitlements held are 21.12 and the difference between the area claimed and the area found is under 3% and under 2ha the area put forward for payment is 20.02ha.
A formal decision issued to the person named on 7 November 2010 that advised him of his right to seek a review of the decision within 21 days to the District Inspector and of his right to appeal the outcome of any such review to the Independent Agriculture Appeals Office.
The inspection process is complete and the application has been fully processed. Payments under the Disadvantaged Areas Scheme issued on 2 December 2010 and payment under the Single Payment Scheme issued on 1 December 2010.
