An application under the 2010 single payment scheme was received from the person named on 9 February 2011. The closing date for receipt of applications under this scheme was 17 May 2010.

Having now received a copy of the proof of postage showing that the application was posted prior to the closing date, it has been decided by my Department to waive the penalty for late submission of this application. The payments are now being processed and these payments will issue shortly.
