An application under the 2010 single payment scheme was received from the person named on 5 May 2010. While the advance payment due under the scheme issued on 16 November 2010, the balancing payment is outstanding as issues have since come to light relating to a portion of those payment entitlements leased-in by the person named. It is expected that this matter will be resolved shortly, following which a balancing payment will issue to the applicant.
