An application under the 2012 Disadvantaged Areas Scheme was received from the person named on 9 May 2012.

However, payment has not yet issued as, at this stage, the holding of the person concerned has not yet satisfied the Scheme minimum stocking density requirements, which have been notified to all Scheme applicants. Immediately the holding concerned is confirmed as having met these requirements, the case will be further processed with a view to payment at the earliest possible date thereafter.
