The 50% advance payment under the 2011 Single Payment Scheme is not scheduled to commence until 16 October. 2011.

Five Transfer of Entitlement applications were received prior to the closing date of 17 May 2011 requesting the transfer of entitlements from the first person named to five other farmers.

All transfers have now been processed. Payment in respect of the remaining entitlements held by the first person named will issue as of from 16 October 2011. An official from my Department has been in contact with the first person named outlining the position.
