Under the EU Regulations governing the agri-environment Options Scheme and other area-based payment schemes, a comprehensive administrative check, including cross-checks with the Land Parcel Identification System, must be completed before any payment can issue. Payment will issue at the earliest possible date once these checks have been completed.

The person named registered 20 beef breed calves in 2009. Payment has issued in respect of 15 calves. The remaining 5 calves were rejected on the grounds of non-compliance with the weaning procedures during an on-farm inspection. A review of this decision was sought by the applicant and is currently being undertaken. My Department will inform the applicant of the outcome of that review.
