Under the provisions of the governing EU Regulations, the deadline for the receipt of applications under the Single Payment Scheme is 15 May. There is provision for the acceptance of late applications up to 25 working days after that deadline subject to the imposition of a late penalty. Applications received after this 25 day limit are subjected to a 100% late penalty. An application for the 2010 Single Payment Scheme submitted by the representatives of the person named, who is deceased, was received in my Department on 6 July 2010. In accordance with the provisions of the Regulations, this application was deemed ineligible as it was received after 11th June 2010 (25 day limit) when a 100% late penalty was applied.
Following contact by an official from my Department with the representatives of the deceased person, it has been decided to accept the Single Payment application without the imposition of a late penalty on the grounds of force majeure/exceptional circumstances. Payment of the 2010 Single Farm Payment application is being processed and will issue in due course.
