The person named was the subject of a Nitrates inspection by my Department acting on behalf of the Department of the Environment, Health and Local Government on the 19th of April 2010. This inspection uncovered discrepancies that were deemed to be intentional and a penalty of 15% was recorded against the 2010 Direct Payments for the person named. The person named was informed of this decision on the 6th of May 2010 and of his right to seek a review. He was also informed of his right to appeal the outcome of any review to the Independent Agriculture Appeals office. To date no request for review has been received. Payments under the 2010 Single Payment Scheme were issued to the applicant on 18 October 2010 (€1,939.56), 1 December 2010 (€1,163.74) and 15 February 2011 (€12,617.76).
