An application under the Single Payment Scheme /Disadvantaged Areas Scheme was received from the person named on the 24th April 2012. In order to comply with EU requirements, the application was one of a number which was selected for inspection and therefore payment could not be made pending the outcome of this process. Arising from the findings of this inspection, it has been necessary to adjust the payment in accordance with the Terms and Conditions of the Scheme. The applicant is being advised of this outcome and of the reasons for it. The applicant is also being advised of the right to seek a review and also of the right to appeal the outcome of any such review, in due course, to the independent Agriculture Appeals Office. The application is now being progressed with a view to payment issuing shortly on this basis.
