A request for review of a Cross Compliance penalty under the 2010 Single Payment Scheme, relating to the failure to submit records of feed and fertiliser as required under the European Communities (Good Agricultural Practice for Protection of Waters) Regulations (S.I. No. 101 of 2009), was received from the person named on 8th August 2012.

The applicant was advised on 19th September 2012 of the outcome of this review, which was to uphold the original decision. The applicant was also advised of the right to appeal the outcome of the review to the independent Agriculture Appeals Office, within 3 months of the date of the review letter. To date, no such appeal has been received.
