The person named was approved for participation in the Agri-Environment Options Scheme with effect from the 1st September 2010 and full payment totalling €523.29 issued in respect of 2010.
Under the EU Regulations governing the Scheme and other area-based payment schemes, a comprehensive administrative check, including cross-checks with the Land Parcel Identification System, must be completed before any payment can issue. Payment in respect of the 2011 Scheme year is also subject to verification of capital investment through checks on receipts. These checks have now been successfully completed and payment in respect of 2011 will issue shortly to the person named.
